Christmas party fish and chips for Meonstoke events
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Meonstoke
The van parks outside and serves hot food, without anyone leaving site. Typical bookings include depot Christmas treats and christmas family parties, with cod and chips, gravy and curry sauce.
Near Meonstoke, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Parking and the way in
- How far we travel
- The menu and how many choices
- Service time
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of where the van would go
- Anything awkward about the way in
Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: tell us the basics about your Christmas party, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Meonstoke?
A cold buffet in December is not much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
