Christmas party fish and chips for Witherenden Hill events

Christmas party fish and chips in Witherenden Hill, fried fresh

Everything is fried inside the van, so rain and cold don’t stop us. We are frequently asked to cater festive gatherings after Christmas and work Christmas parties, serving sausage and chips, gravy and pie and chips.

In winter near Witherenden Hill, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu.

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it is a favourite with children.

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

What the van needs

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

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

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Check the van can park on site
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Ensure the van and queue are well lit
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.

Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.

What affects the price in Witherenden Hill

We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number of meals
  • Your choice of menu
  • The minimum booking
  • Distance and any road charges

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Where the event is
  • Roughly how many people, including children

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

What happens on the day

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. An afternoon Christmas party in Witherenden Hill can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm, so put the van where there is good light.

  1. Send us your December date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the spot for the van and send a quote.
  3. Arrival time and a well-lit spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We park up, heat the fryers and serve hot food on a cold day.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Make sure the van can get in
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
