DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Oakthorpe Park
December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. For end-of-year club parties and christmas lunches for shift teams, we can cook haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
For Christmas parties in Oakthorpe Park, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.
