Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Confirm allergies by email
- Plan cover for the queue
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
Christmas party fish and chips in Wrotham Heath, cooked to order
Not every Christmas party needs a turkey dinner. Hot fish and chips on a cold December day is festive in its own way. Popular choices include mushy peas, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for family Christmas get-togethers and PTA Christmas events.
Near Wrotham Heath, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Any minimum charge
- The length of service
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The venue or postcode

Send us the date, the address or ME19 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.

Wrotham Heath in December: what to know

If people are coming by rail, Borough Green & Wrotham station, about 1.9 miles west, is the nearest station.
