Christmas party fish and chips for Peckham events

Christmas party fish and chips in Peckham, cooked to order

The van parks outside and serves hot food. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas lunches for shift teams and family Christmas get-togethers.

London Christmas parties in Peckham are frequently at offices, pubs with a yard or homes with a drive. Let us know about lighting and the way in. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Planning a Christmas party in Peckham

Peckham is about 2 miles south-east of London, in Greater London. For Christmas parties in Peckham, we can park on a drive, a car park, a yard or firm, dry grass. We cover 764 places across Greater London.

PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as John Donne Primary School, suit a chip van. Train travellers will want to know that Peckham has its own station, Queens Road Peckham station.

We take the van to Christmas parties all over the SE15, SE14 and SE5 postcode area. Local streets include Rye Lane, Relf Road and Mona Road; a Christmas party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Peckham sits on or near the A2215, so getting the van to your Christmas party is simple.

What affects the price in Peckham

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The minimum booking
  • The day of the week
  • How far we travel
  • The number of meals

The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The address or venue name

It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Step by step

We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. December in Peckham means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  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.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Make sure the van can get in

Planning help

Organising for someone else?

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

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

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

Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it’s pork only. A chip van gives a choice. Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What you get with us

  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • No kitchen needed
  • Hot food handed straight over
  • Classic food your guests already know

Read how we price and what a fish and chip van costs.

Peckham: your questions answered

Could you trade in Brimmington Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Which station is closest to Peckham?

Queens Road Peckham station, in Peckham itself.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we’ll send a quote.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.

Where do you take the van?

We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • A spot near your guests
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

Peckham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Book as early as possible for December
  • Plan lighting near the hatch
  • Ask about allergies on the party invitation

Plan cover for the queue.

Crackers on the tables finish it off.
