Stonestreet Green: your questions answered
Is Stonestreet Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Will the weather be a problem?
The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A short walk from the party
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Popular choices
- Gravy
- Pie and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Curry sauce
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
How the day works
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. An afternoon Christmas party in Stonestreet Green can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:50pm; light the path to the van.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
Getting a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
