No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Kit's Coty
Do you come out to small places like Kit's Coty?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in Westfield Wood?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if it’s raining or freezing?
The van copes fine. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Food your guests will love
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving.
