Christmas party fish and chips in Westmarsh, fried fresh
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, serving hot food on a chilly evening. Whether it is office Christmas parties and festive gatherings after Christmas, we can cook gravy, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
For a Christmas party near Westmarsh, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Every site is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A spot near your guests

Westmarsh: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Westmarsh?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Westmarsh?
Minster station, about 2.6 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
Is grass a problem?
Often, 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.
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 will work through them with you.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

A chip van compared with other options
Next to a Christmas meal out, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.
