How our Christmas party fish and chips works in North Leigh
For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you. Popular choices include mushy peas, sausage and chips and curry sauce, and we’re frequently booked for end-of-year customer events and boxing Day and New Year gatherings.
In a small place like North Leigh, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Planning a Christmas party in North Leigh
North Leigh is about 3 miles north-east of Witney, in Oxfordshire. Anywhere in OX29, we will come to your venue, home or workplace. We take the van to all 443 towns and villages across Oxfordshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from North Leigh to Oxford (10 miles away).
If a church like St Mary's Church is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. A winter fair at a school like North Leigh Church of England (Controlled) School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
Christmas parties anywhere in OX29 start with a parking spot for the van and a serving time. Local streets include Church Road, Cuckamus Lane and Windmill Heights; a Christmas party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. If your venue is just outside North Leigh, we also cover New Yatt (1 mile west), East End (1 mile north-east), Freeland (2 miles east), Poffley End (2 miles west) and Delly End (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Oxford (10 miles south-east), Bicester (14 miles north-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (12 miles south-east), Witney (3 miles south-west), Carterton (7 miles south-west) and Wantage (15 miles south).
Nearby you’ll also find Cogges Manor Farm Museum (2.5 miles south-west). Open spaces near North Leigh include Blenheim Farm.
- Local schools include Wood Green School (1.9 miles south-west)
- Pubs nearby include The Masons Arms Public House (under half a mile north)
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier

- Send allergies to us in writing
Send people out in groups.
Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.

How it works

- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A cold buffet doesn’t feel festive. Hot food from the van does. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
What you get with us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

FAQs for North Leigh
Is North Leigh close to London?
About 62 miles from central London.
What’s the nearest station to North Leigh?
The closest is Combe station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
