Christmas party fish and chips in Middle Claydon, cooked to order
Family get-togethers over the festive season can use a van too, if the date suits. For festive open days and christmas family parties, we can cook curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips.
For a Christmas party near Middle Claydon, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

- Choose a lit spot for the van

A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.

Middle Claydon questions
Is Middle Claydon too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Middle Claydon close to London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
Venue Christmas packages add up. A van can be better value. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Cod, haddock or both
- The length of service
- How far we travel
Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The venue or postcode
