It’s a crowd-pleaser, which makes it ideal for a big, mixed group. Whether it’s christmas fairs at schools and festive open days, we can cook haddock and chips, gravy and pie and chips.

In a small place like Speen, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Takeaway run or book a van?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Speen

How far is Speen from London?

Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Which station is closest to Speen?

Saunderton station, about 2.1 miles south-west of the centre.

What time is best for food?

At the time you choose. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.

Do you do work Christmas parties?

We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Speen?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

How early do Christmas dates go?

As soon as you have a date.

Do you have allergen information?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
  • Plan cover for the queue
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
  • Check the van can park on site

Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.

Christmas music near the van sets the mood.

How it works

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. In December, it’s dark in Speen by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

  1. First, tell us about your Christmas party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Before we arrive

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
