About our Christmas party fish and chips in Mill Lane
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and a quick, organised service. Whether it’s festive gatherings after Christmas and christmas markets and fairs, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, haddock and chips and gravy.
For a Christmas party near Mill Lane, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Common questions in Mill Lane
Can the van park in Basingbourne Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Mill Lane from London?
About 38 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Mill Lane?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
Early in the evening typically works best, before the drinks really flow. For lunchtime, we will work to your break.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Surrey. Find your area.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
Send people out in groups in the cold.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

Planning a Christmas party in Mill Lane
Mill Lane is about 2 miles south-west of Fleet, in Surrey. We serve Christmas parties at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Mill Lane. We take the van to all 395 towns and villages in Surrey. Our bookings stretch from Mill Lane to Guildford (13 miles away).
Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Old Church of All Saints draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. A winter fair at a school like St Nicholas' School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
