St Ann's Green questions
Which station is closest to St Ann's Green?
The closest is Marden station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can residents with special diets join in?
Your care team knows each resident’s needs. Share the diets and we will say what we can do; soft and texture-modified meals should come from your kitchen.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
- Ask about smaller portions
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray right away.
Bunting, deckchairs and a seaside theme make it an occasion.
How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. December visits in St Ann's Green are best at lunchtime, as it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Name one person we can call on the day
