Hoo St Werburgh: your questions answered
Is Hoo St Werburgh close to London?
Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Hoo St Werburgh?
Gillingham (Kent) station, about 2.7 miles south of the centre.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As soon as you have a date, especially for a Friday.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
- Confirm allergies by email
- Collect allergies in advance
We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot before the party starts.
Fairy lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

What else we do in Hoo St Werburgh
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Venue Christmas packages add up. A van can be better value. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
Why us?
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- A clear quote before booking
- Classic food your guests already know
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. By about 3:50pm in late December, it is dark in Hoo St Werburgh; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- You tell us the date, the venue or site, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get an access check and a clear quote.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Before we arrive
- Plan where the queue will stand
