Christmas party fish and chips in Queenborough, cooked to order
The cooking is inside the van, so rain and cold don’t stop us. Popular choices include gravy, mushy peas and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater end-of-year club parties and festive open days.
Around Queenborough, Christmas parties are often at home, the village hall or a club. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
