Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Poundon

A Christmas party does not have to mean another turkey dinner. Fish and chips from the van is warming, generous and a bit different. For end-of-year customer events and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.

In winter near Poundon, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.
