Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

- Book as early as possible for December
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
Park the van close to the door.
Festive lights by the van look great.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it’s one dish. A chip van gives a choice. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Why book with us
- No kitchen needed
- Events in Springhead and across Kent
- Something for guests to gather round
- A quote that spells everything out
Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Sunset in Springhead in late December is about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Plan where the queue will stand

About the food
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
