Christmas party fish and chips in Milford
Christmas party fish and chips in Milford, fried fresh
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, serving hot food on a chilly evening. We serve cod and chips, sausage and chips and gravy, and we are often booked for staff Christmas parties and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches.
At a festive party in Milford, a chip van on the drive is a treat. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Milford: your questions answered
How far is Milford from London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Milford?
Milford (Surrey) station, about 0.8 miles south-east of the centre.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Before you book anyone
- Payment terms and deposit
- Whether travel is included
- The service time, and the cost of running over
- If the price includes VAT
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In December, it is dark in Milford by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Milford is one of 395 places in Surrey where we bring the van. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 6 miles away.
