Workplace catering around Blean
Blean is about 3 miles north-west of Canterbury, in Kent. For staff events in Blean, we can park on a drive, a car park, a yard or firm, dry grass in and around Blean. We take the van to 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages.
Central London is about 51 miles from Blean, well within our area. By road, Blean is on or near the A290, which makes it easy for us to reach with the van. The coast is within about 4 miles, so a chip van lunch feels like a day at the seaside.
For staff events in CT2, we just need to know where the van can park. That could mean a staff event at a home on Westfield, School Lane and Vicarage Lane or the roads around them, wherever the van can park. Blean is on the A290, so it is easy for us to reach with the van. We also bring the van to staff events in Honey Hill (1 mile north-west), Tyler Hill (1 mile east), Denstroude (1 mile north-west), Hackington (1 mile east) and Yorkletts (2 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Ashford (14 miles south-west), Canterbury (3 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (14 miles west), Whitstable (3 miles north), Faversham (7 miles west) and Herne Bay (6 miles north-east).

Planners, venues and businesses
Organising a club, school or community event in Blean? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- The minimum booking
- The number of meals
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A picture of the parking spot
- Dietary needs, with numbers
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Blean: your questions answered
Is Blean too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in Tyler Hill Meadow?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come to Blean?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Blean and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes. Visitors love it.
What can staff choose from?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Do you work around shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
