Christmas party fish and chips in Tongham, cooked to order
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop service. For festive family gatherings and club and society Christmas socials, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
In Tongham, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
For event organisers in Tongham
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Questions from Tongham
Can the van park in Aldershot Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
How far is Tongham from London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
When should we eat?
Whenever suits your party. Plan lighting, as it is dark early.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes. Send us your date and site details.

Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Choose a lit spot for the van
When service is finished, we pack up.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Tongham?
A cold buffet in December is not much of a treat. Hot food from the van does. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
