Christmas party fish and chips in Northmoor, cooked to order
For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you, if the date suits. On the menu are cod and chips, pie and chips and gravy, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas socials for clubs and end-of-year customer events.
For a Christmas party near Northmoor, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
For something other than turkey, a fish and chip van is a great choice. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Why us?
- Hot food handed straight over
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
These are the factors that matter most:
- Any minimum charge
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
- Cod, haddock or both
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A picture of the space and the way in
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.
Common questions in Northmoor
Is Northmoor close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Northmoor?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
