Christmas party fish and chips in Tangley
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Tangley
Family get-togethers over the festive season can use a van too. Typical bookings include festive open days and office Christmas parties, serving sausage and chips, gravy and haddock and chips.
In winter near Tangley, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Step by step
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. An afternoon Christmas party in Tangley can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 4:00pm, so put the van where there is good light.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- You get an availability check and a clear 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.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan where the queue will stand
Ask for a quote
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a spot won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Lighting nearby for evening events
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it’s pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
What you get with us
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Classic food your guests already know
- A van that becomes part of the event
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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 usually simpler.
