Wildridings questions

Is Wildridings close to London?

Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to Wildridings?

Bracknell station, about 0.6 miles north-east of the centre.

How early do Christmas dates go?

Ideally in the summer or early autumn.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.

Which areas do you serve?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Can the van park on the street?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

How much space do you need?

Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Christmas party fish and chips for your Christmas party in Wildridings

December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. Popular choices include haddock and chips, curry sauce and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for office Christmas parties and new Year parties.

At a festive party in Wildridings, the van on the drive goes down well on a dark December evening. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Food your guests will love

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A spot near your guests
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Step by step

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. It gets dark in Wildridings by about 3:55pm at Christmas; park the van where there’s good light, and keep the walk short.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
