Christmas party fish and chips in Titchfield Common
Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Titchfield Common
For a family gathering over Christmas, the van can come to you, if the date suits. We’re often asked to cater boxing Day and New Year gatherings and festive family gatherings, serving curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips.
Around Titchfield Common, Christmas parties are often at home, the village hall or a club. We need firm ground and some light. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
About the food
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Titchfield Common in December: what to know

Titchfield Common is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we bring the van. Our bookings stretch from Titchfield Common to Southampton (about 7 miles away).

Before you choose a spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Popular choices
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Curry sauce
- Gravy
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Titchfield Common?
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.

Titchfield Common questions
What’s the nearest station to Titchfield Common?
Swanwick station, about 1.5 miles north of the centre.
Can you serve near the sea around Titchfield Common?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As soon as you have a date.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
