Fresh fish and chips in Weston

Christmas party fish and chips in Weston, 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’re frequently asked to cater christmas markets and fairs and festive gatherings after Christmas, serving pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.

Near Weston, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

  • The day of the week

  • The number of meals
  • Any minimum charge

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Where the event is
  • The date and time of the event
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

Step by step

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. It gets dark in Weston by about 4:00pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Share the timings for the day

Ask for a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your Christmas party, and we will check the date and send a price.

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Plan cover for the queue

For a work party, food early in the evening usually works best.

Hot drinks alongside make it even better.

  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
