A chip van near Woolmer
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Woolmer
The van parks outside and serves hot food. Typical bookings include work Christmas parties and christmas fairs at schools, with gravy, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
For a Christmas party near Woolmer, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.

Planning a Christmas party in Woolmer
Woolmer is about 2 miles south of Bordon, in Hampshire. We serve Christmas parties at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Woolmer. Woolmer is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 17 miles away.
Christmas fairs at a church such as St Matthew's Church can book the van as a hot-food stall. A winter fair at a school like St Matthew's Church of England Aided Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Woolmer is within about 7 miles of the South Downs National Park; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

Questions from Woolmer
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What’s the nearest station to Woolmer?
Liss station, about 2.8 miles south of the centre.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, if there is a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can you serve in the cold?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Keep the van close to the door.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes. Send us the event details and the pitch information.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

What else we do in Woolmer
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- 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
