Fresh fish and chips in Whitehouse
Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Whitehouse
A chip van is a welcome sight at a Christmas fair, serving hot food on a chilly evening. Popular choices include gravy, pie and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for christmas markets and fairs and new Year parties.
Around Whitehouse, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. The van needs a lit spot and a firm surface. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

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. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Plan cover for the queue
Send people out in groups in the cold.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your Christmas party. The frying and serving are down to us. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Whitehouse, so put the van where there’s good light.
- 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.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
