How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Nine Elms
It works for teams who can’t all leave at once, with service timed to each group. Whether it is family Christmas get-togethers and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas and more.
In Nine Elms, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Tell us about lighting and access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Space, access and the venue

- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
As a London location, Nine Elms is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
When service is finished, we pack up.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
