Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Springvale
A Christmas party does not have to mean another turkey dinner. Fish and chips from the van is warming, generous and a bit different. We are frequently asked to cater christmas markets and fairs and depot Christmas treats, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
In Springvale, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Planners, venues and businesses
Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
