Christmas party fish and chips in Lynsore Bottom, cooked to order

A Christmas party doesn’t have to mean another turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Typical bookings include festive family gatherings and school and PTA Christmas fairs, with pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

For a Christmas party near Lynsore Bottom, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Christmas parties in Lynsore Bottom: local tips

Lynsore Bottom is about 5 miles south of Canterbury, in Kent. Bookings in Lynsore Bottom come in all shapes and sizes, but the plan is always the same: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. We take the van to all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages.

If a church like Church of St Peter and St Paul is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 4 miles of Lynsore Bottom, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.

Common questions in Lynsore Bottom

Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Can the van park in Jumping Downs?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

When should we eat?

Food early on is usually wise, before the drinks really flow. For a lunch, tell us your break time.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Can the van come to Lynsore Bottom?

We do. Lynsore Bottom is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Do you do work Christmas parties?

We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers.

Step by step

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we will adjust start times and pace to suit your Christmas party. It gets dark in Lynsore Bottom by about 3:50pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.

  1. You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
  4. We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Before we arrive

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Planning help

For event organisers in Lynsore Bottom

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

What affects the price in Lynsore Bottom

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • The date and time of year
  • The minimum booking
  • Numbers
  • Access and parking

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.
