Common questions in Tuesley
How far is Tuesley from London?
About 32 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van park in Phillips Memorial Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Christmas party fish and chips in Tuesley, cooked to order
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a lit, sheltered spot, and service timed so people aren’t outside for long. On the menu are sausage and chips, cod and chips and gravy, and we are frequently booked for end-of-year customer events and club and society Christmas socials.
For a Christmas party near Tuesley, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.
What happens on the day
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. December in Tuesley means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- We start with a few details 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.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Give us a contact for the day
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

What the van needs
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. The main points are:

- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Planning for dietary needs

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Parking and the way in
- The number of meals
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Where the event is
- Where the van would park
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.
A chip van compared with other options
A cold buffet in December is not much of a treat. Hot food from the van does. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
Why Tuesley hosts choose us
- A clear quote before booking
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Something for guests to gather round
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
