Christmas party fish and chips for The Warren events
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in The Warren
The Christmas season is short and busy, so it pays to ask early. Popular choices include curry sauce, haddock and chips and gravy, and we are frequently booked for school and PTA Christmas fairs and new Year parties.
At a festive party in The Warren, the van on the drive goes down well on a dark December evening. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Christmas parties in The Warren: local tips
The Warren is about 1 mile east of Bracknell, in Bracknell Forest. From the centre of The Warren to the outskirts, the service works the same way: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. We serve 41 places in Bracknell Forest, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from The Warren to Reading (11 miles away).
If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like Harmans Water Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well. If a church like St Paul is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening.
Anywhere in RG12 and SL5, we can fry fresh for your guests. Streets in the area include Bog Lane, The Square and Mendip Road, and the van can serve a Christmas party on any of them with a suitable parking spot. Neighbouring places where we serve Christmas parties include Martins Heron (1 mile north), Forest Park (1 mile south-west), Jennett's Park (1 mile north-west), Harmans Water (1 mile west) and Bullbrook (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover Sandhurst (5 miles south-west), Binfield (3 miles north-west), Temple Park (3 miles north-west), Popeswood (3 miles north-west), College Town (5 miles south-west) and Farley Wood (3 miles west).

- Schools near The Warren include LVS Ascot (1 mile north-east) and Ranelagh School (1.2 miles west)
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Plan cover for the queue
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Let us know about coeliac disease
For a work party, food early in the evening normally works best.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.

What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
The process
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. December in The Warren means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Let us know the serving time

About the food
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.

Questions to ask before booking
- Any minimum charge
- VAT, if it applies
- The deposit and payment dates
- When final numbers are due
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.
