Christmas party fish and chips in Postling Green
About our Christmas party fish and chips in Postling Green
December dates book up early, so it pays to ask early. For family Christmas get-togethers and school and PTA Christmas fairs, we can cook curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Postling Green, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Put allergy details in writing
- Keep the queue dry
We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
Postling Green in December: what to know
Postling Green is about 5 miles west of Hythe, in Kent. Anywhere in TN25, we can bring the van to you. Postling Green is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 15 miles away.
A Christmas fair at Church of St Martin is just the kind of event a chip van suits. Train travellers will want to know that Westenhanger station, about 3.5 miles east, is the nearest station. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Postling Green; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning. With the sea within about 6 miles, December breezes can be cold.
Wherever your Christmas party is in TN25, we can bring the van to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We also bring the van to Christmas parties in Aldington (1 mile north-west), Stonestreet Green (1 mile north-west), Bonnington (1 mile west), Clap Hill (1 mile north-west) and Aldington Frith (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also take the van to Ashford (6 miles north-west), Canterbury (15 miles north), Dover (15 miles east), Folkestone (9 miles east), Hythe (5 miles east) and Tower Hamlets (15 miles east).
A little further out are William Harvey Hospital (4.6 miles north-west) and Lympne Castle (2.8 miles east). Within reach you’ll find Hatch Park.
- Nearby, you’ll find Walnut Tree Inn (1 mile north-west)
What the van needs
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Occasions we serve in Postling Green
By December, many people have had several Christmas dinners, so a chip van makes a nice change.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:

- Christmas socials for clubs
- Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons
- Work Christmas parties
If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Aldington Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well.
What your quote should include
- The service time, and the cost of running over
- What the price includes, item by item
- What happens if the event is cancelled or moved
- VAT, if it applies
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. An afternoon Christmas party in Postling Green can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:50pm, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
