FAQs for Twitham
How far is Twitham from London?
About 60 miles from central London.
Is Twitham too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
When should we eat?
At the time you choose. Plan lighting, as it’s dark early.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
As soon as you have a date.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

The process
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Plan your Christmas party in Twitham around the dark: the light goes at about 3:50pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- 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
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
Ask for a quote
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of menu
- The minimum booking
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The date and time of year
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the van would park
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your Christmas party, and we’ll quote on that. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
