Christmas party fish and chips in Marcham, fried fresh

The cooking is inside the van, so rain and cold don’t stop us. We’re frequently asked to cater lights switch-on events and christmas customer days, serving curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips.

Around Marcham, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Questions from Marcham

How far is Marcham from London?

Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Which station is closest to Marcham?

Radley station, about 4.4 miles east of the centre.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Do you fry it on site?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

When do Christmas bookings fill up?

Very early. Fridays in December book up first.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.

Planners, venues and businesses

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

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

Marcham in December: what to know

Marcham is about 3 miles west of Abingdon-on-Thames, in Oxfordshire. For Christmas parties in Marcham, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. We cover 443 places across Oxfordshire. Our bookings stretch from Marcham to Oxford (about 7 miles away).

A Christmas fair at Church of All Saints is just the kind of event a chip van suits. If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like Abingdon Preparatory School, hot fish and chips goes down well.

Christmas parties anywhere in OX13 start with a parking spot for the van. That could mean a Christmas party at a home on Haines Court, Orchard Way and Elwes Road or the roads around them, wherever the van can park. If your venue is just outside Marcham, we also cover Frilford (1 mile west), Frilford Heath (1 mile north-west), Cothill (2 miles north), Tubney (2 miles north-west) and Shippon (2 miles north-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Oxford (7 miles north-east), Didcot (6 miles south-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (3 miles east), Witney (10 miles north-west), Carterton (13 miles north-west) and Wantage (6 miles south-west).

A little further out are Abingdon Community Hospital (1.7 miles east) and FitzHarris Castle (2.5 miles east). Open spaces near Marcham include Hitchcopse Pit and Cumnor Hill.

  • Local schools include Larkmead School (1.8 miles east)
  • Pubs nearby include The Crown Public House (within half a mile south-west)

Why choose a fish and chip van in Marcham?

Why book our van in Marcham

  • A clear quote before booking
  • All the chip-shop extras
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • No kitchen needed

Read our prices page or what a fish and chip van costs.

How it works

Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Plan your Christmas party in Marcham around the dark: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Ensure the van can get in

Ask for a quote

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will check availability straight away.

About the food

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Check the van can park on site
  • Plan cover for the queue
  • Make sure the van and queue are well lit
  • Send allergies to us in writing

We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot.

A bit of festive music by the van helps.

Planning the van’s spot

If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you. What matters most:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A spot near your guests

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we serve

  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Gravy
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Pie and chips
