Fresh fish and chips in Pitchcott
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Christmas party fish and chips in Pitchcott, cooked to order
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and a quick, organised service. Whether it is work Christmas parties and club and society Christmas socials, we can cook pie and chips, gravy and sausage and chips and more.
In a small place like Pitchcott, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.

We take the van to all 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Pitchcott to Milton Keynes (about 12 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like Whitchurch Combined School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of St. Giles can book the van as a hot-food stall.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Pitchcott
Is Pitchcott close to London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Pitchcott?
Aylesbury Vale Parkway station, about 3.3 miles south of the centre.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
When should we book for December?
As early as possible. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Book as early as possible for December
- Put allergy details in writing
Plan cover for the queue.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Sunset in Pitchcott in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- It starts with your date, site and numbers.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We clear our spot and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Tell us when you want to eat
