Christmas party fish and chips in Town Row, cooked to order

Step by step
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Sunset in Town Row in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- We park up, heat the fryers and serve hot food on a cold day.
- We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Name one person we can call on the day

A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

What else we do in Town Row
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Plan cover for the queue
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
For a work party, food early in the evening normally works best.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Town Row questions
Is Town Row close to London?
About 34 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
Very early. Fridays in December book up first.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
Yes, if there is a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
