Christmas party fish and chips in Redlands, fried fresh
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. Popular choices include gravy, curry sauce and haddock and chips, and we are often booked for festive family gatherings and boxing Day and New Year gatherings.
Near Redlands, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Step by step
You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. An afternoon Christmas party in Redlands can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there is good light.
- You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the spot for the van and send a quote.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- We park up, heat the fryers and serve hot food on a cold day.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Before we arrive
- Have a level parking spot ready

What affects the price in Redlands
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The menu and how many choices
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The day of the week
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
