Takeaway run or book a van?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

A chip van compared with other options

Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Common questions in Rodmersham

Is Rodmersham close to London?

About 39 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Rodmersham?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What if it is raining or freezing?

The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.

Can you park on the road outside?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes. Tell us the date and pitch.

Planners, venues and businesses

Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Agree the spot with the venue
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot before the party starts.

Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.

What affects the price in Rodmersham

There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How many people are eating
  • Access and parking
  • Service time

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
