How it works

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your Christmas party. Plan your Christmas party in Sands End around the dark: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Let us know the serving time

About the food

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • How long we serve
  • The minimum booking
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How easy the site is to reach

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The address or venue name
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • A picture of the space and the way in

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Plan lighting near the hatch
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Check the van can park on site

We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot.

Hot drinks alongside make it even better.

Where the van can park in Sands End

Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

As a London location, Sands End is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
