How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Seething Wells

In Seething Wells, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Let us know about lighting and the way in. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

How it works
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. December in Seething Wells means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Where the van can park in Seething Wells
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
As a London location, Seething Wells is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Questions from Seething Wells
Can the van park in Hampton Court Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Seething Wells?
Seething Wells has its own station: Surbiton station.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Seething Wells.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
A chip van compared with other options
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van in the car park keeps it simple. Larger groups typically 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.
