How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Newland Green
The cooking is inside the van, so the weather does not stop service. For christmas fairs at schools and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches, we can cook haddock and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips.
Near Newland Green, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. What matters most:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Lighting nearby for evening events

Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. 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. Ask us for a quote.

FAQs for Newland Green
Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Which station is closest to Newland Green?
The closest is Pluckley station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
Do you cater Christmas fairs?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Get in touch with the date.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
What time is best for food?
At the time you choose. Remember it’s dark by about 4pm in December.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
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. December in Newland Green means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:50pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
