Christmas party fish and chips in Queen Street, fried fresh
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, with hot food for visitors in the cold. We serve sausage and chips, gravy and curry sauce, and we’re often booked for PTA Christmas events and christmas customer days.
Near Queen Street, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
We park somewhere lit and get the fryers hot before the party starts.
Christmas music near the van sets the mood.

About the food
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
