Planning a Christmas party in Russ Hill
Russ Hill is about 3 miles north of Bewbush, in Surrey. For Christmas parties in Russ Hill, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. We serve all 395 towns and villages in Surrey. We serve events right across the region, from Russ Hill to Guildford (16 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like Charlwood Village Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Train travellers will want to know that Ifield station, about 2.6 miles south-east, is the nearest station. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Russ Hill; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Put allergy details in writing
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The day of the week
- How many people are eating
- Distance and any road charges
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Your date and serving time
- The address or venue name
Send us the date, the address or RH6 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you’ll get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Gravy
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
How the day works
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. Sunset in Russ Hill in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Have a level parking spot ready
Ask for a quote
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
