Looking after everyone

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Tell facilities or the venue about the van
  • Collect allergies in advance

Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.

Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

What a fish and chip van costs

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Parking and the way in
  • The length of service

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and time of the event
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?

DIY versus a fish and chip van

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Step by step

Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Old Wolverton, so put the van where there is good light.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Old Wolverton

How far is Old Wolverton from London?

About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to Old Wolverton?

Wolverton station, about 0.9 miles east of the centre.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, including Milton Keynes. See all areas.

Do you do Christmas markets?

We do. Send us the event details and the pitch information.

Is grass a problem?

Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Do you bring everything you need?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
