Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Weald
Is Weald too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Weald from London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac residents when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you cover Weald?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Weald. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Where will the van park?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Residents will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Garden visits in Weald work best between late spring and early autumn, with sunset about 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.

Takeaway run or book a 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 solves that by cooking on site.
