How our Christmas party fish and chips works in South Street
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, serving hot food on a chilly evening. Typical bookings include lights switch-on events and festive open days, with gravy, curry sauce and pie and chips.
In a small place like South Street, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
For planners, venues and organisers
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

There is very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your Christmas party. The frying and serving are down to us. Sunset in South Street in late December is about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
