Christmas parties in Oving: local tips

We serve 263 places across Buckinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Milton Keynes, about 11 miles away.
Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of All Saints draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. A winter fair at a school like Whitchurch Combined School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Check the van can park on site
- 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.
The process
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. It gets dark in Oving by about 3:55pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan where the queue will stand
