Christmas party fish and chips in Westfield, fried fresh
Not every Christmas party needs a turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. We are often asked to cater festive gatherings after Christmas and christmas lunches for shift teams, with pie and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
For a Christmas get-together near Westfield, a chip van on the drive is a treat on a dark December evening. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
About the food
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
