Who books Christmas party fish and chips in South Oxhey?
It suits shift teams who can’t all go out together.
These are some of the bookings we take:
- Christmas family parties
- Christmas socials for clubs
- Christmas markets and fairs
- Work Christmas parties
A winter fair at a school like Greenfields Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
Comparing caterers
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
- The deposit and payment dates
- Whether travel is included
- The service time, and the cost of running over
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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 solves that by cooking on site.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Send round an allergy question
- Agree the spot with the venue
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Confirm allergies by email
Park the van close to the door.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A cold buffet in December isn’t much of a treat. Hot food from the van does. Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why South Oxhey hosts choose us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Hot food handed straight over
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
