About our Christmas party fish and chips in Milton Keynes
A Christmas party does not have to mean another turkey dinner. Fish and chips from the van is warming, generous and a bit different. We serve cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re often booked for christmas markets and fairs and office Christmas parties.
A spot close to the door works best in December, so nobody is out in the cold for long. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
A chip van compared with other options
A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it is one dish. A chip van gives a choice. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
Why us?
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
