About our Christmas party fish and chips in Mickleham
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, with hot food for visitors in the cold. We serve mushy peas, cod and chips and curry sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater festive family gatherings and new Year parties.
For a Christmas party near Mickleham, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
For event organisers in Mickleham
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. By about 3:55pm in late December, it is dark in Mickleham; choose a lit spot near the door for the van.
- Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- We park up, heat the fryers and serve hot food on a cold day.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Mickleham questions
Do you come out to small places like Mickleham?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Could you trade in Norbury Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you cover Mickleham?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Mickleham is within our area. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
A chip van compared with other options
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van in the car park keeps it simple. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.

Who books Christmas party fish and chips in Mickleham?
There is no venue to book or taxis to arrange.
We’re booked for all kinds of occasions in Mickleham and nearby. Popular bookings include:
- Staff Christmas parties
- PTA Christmas events
- Boxing Day and New Year gatherings
- Christmas family parties
Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of St Michael can book the van as a hot-food stall.
Questions to ask before booking
- Payment terms and deposit
- Any minimum charge
- What the van needs: space, access, power
- Whether travel is included
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
