How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Redbridge
A fish and chip van in the car park or outside the venue gives everyone a hot meal, without anyone leaving site. We serve cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater festive open days and festive family gatherings.
Near Redbridge, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Christmas catering near Redbridge
Redbridge is about 2 miles south-west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Anywhere in OX1, we can fry fresh for your guests. Redbridge is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover.
A Christmas fair at St Luke's Church is just the kind of event a chip van suits. A winter fair at a school like New Hinksey Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
Christmas parties anywhere in OX1 and OX4 start with a parking spot for the van and roughly how many guests. Local streets include Mill Lane, Upper Road and Betty Lane; a Christmas party on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Nearby, we also serve Christmas parties in New Hinksey (1 mile north), South Hinksey (1 mile west), Hinksey Hill (1 mile west), Donnington (1 mile north-east) and Iffley (1 mile east). Within a short drive, we also cover Didcot (8 miles south), Bicester (13 miles north), Abingdon-on-Thames (4 miles south), Witney (11 miles west), Carterton (15 miles west) and Thame (12 miles east).
Well-known places in the area include Oxford Castle and earlier settlement remains (1.7 miles north) and Templars Square (1.4 miles east). Green spaces nearby include CS Lewis Nature Reserve and Harcourt Hill.
- Nearby schools include Greyfriars Catholic School (1.1 miles north-east) and Emmanuel Christian School (1.2 miles south-east)
- Local pubs include The Isis Farmhouse pub (under half a mile east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Alexander Library of Ornithology (1.5 miles north)
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Send round an allergy question
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Put allergy details in writing
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Redbridge
Is Redbridge close to London?
About 52 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Redbridge?
Oxford station, about 1.9 miles north-west of the centre.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
When should we book for December?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. See all areas.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What affects the price in Redbridge
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The length of service
- Whether a minimum applies
Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- A picture of where the van would go

The process
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. December in Redbridge means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Make sure the van can get in
