Christmas party fish and chips in Kent Street, cooked to order
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. We’re frequently asked to cater club and society Christmas socials and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Kent Street, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. At about 3:50pm in late December, it gets dark in Kent Street, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

FAQs for Kent Street
Is Kent Street close to London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Kent Street?
The closest is Wateringbury station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Can the van park on grass?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
