Festive bookings around Wimbledon Chase
Wimbledon Chase is about 1 mile south of Wimbledon, in Greater London. Whether your Christmas party is in the middle of Wimbledon Chase or on the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. We cover all 764 towns and villages in Greater London. We serve events right across the region, from Wimbledon Chase to London (about 8 miles away).
Christmas fairs at a church such as St Mary's Church can book the van as a hot-food stall. PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Wimbledon Chase Primary School, suit a chip van.
We take the van to Christmas parties all over SW19, SW20 and SM4 and the streets around it. That could mean a Christmas party at a home on Edna Road, Manor Road and Dorien Road, as long as there’s somewhere for the van. For Christmas parties just outside Wimbledon Chase, we cover Merton Park (1 mile east), Bushey Mead (1 mile west), Cannon Hill (1 mile south), Wimbledon (1 mile north) and Raynes Park (1 mile south-west).

About our Christmas party fish and chips in Wimbledon Chase
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for warehouse and depot Christmas lunches and christmas customer days.
Around Wimbledon Chase, a Christmas booking needs a lit, off-road spot. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. In December, it is dark in Wimbledon Chase by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.

Wimbledon Chase questions
Could you trade in Cannon Hill Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Wimbledon Chase?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, with a level spot such as a car park and the site’s agreement.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
