FAQs for Stone Corner
What’s the nearest station to Stone Corner?
Appledore (Kent) station, about 3.9 miles east of the centre.
Is Stone Corner close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
Will the weather be a problem?
Not for the cooking. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
How it works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your Christmas party. An afternoon Christmas party in Stone Corner can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:50pm, so put the van where there’s good light.
- We start with a few details about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan.
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Keep the queue dry
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Put allergy details in writing
Send people out in groups.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How far we travel
- How easy the site is to reach
- The day of the week
- How many people are eating
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where you’d like the van to go
