About our Christmas party fish and chips in Oversland
The Christmas season is short and busy, so ask as soon as you know yours. We serve cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater work Christmas parties and family Christmas get-togethers.
For a Christmas party near Oversland, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Christmas catering near Oversland
Oversland is about 4 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. In and around Oversland, the van can serve from a drive, a yard, a car park or a firm field, close to your guests. Oversland is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover.
If a church like Church of St Peter and St Paul is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. A winter fair at a school like Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Oversland is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.
This part of Kent takes in ME13. Whether your Christmas party is on Dunkirk Road and South Street or anywhere nearby, we will bring the van to you. Close by, we cover Christmas parties in Winterbourne (1 mile north-east), South Street (1 mile west), Hickmans Green (1 mile north), Neames Forstal (1 mile south-west) and Crouch (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Ashford (10 miles south), Canterbury (5 miles east), Sittingbourne (10 miles north-west), Whitstable (6 miles north-east), Faversham (4 miles north-west) and Herne Bay (10 miles north-east).

How it works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your Christmas party. Sunset in Oversland in late December is about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.

Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
Stagger groups so the queue stays short.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
- 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
