What else we do in Brandfold
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. For an end-of-day event in Brandfold, summer gives you light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Brandfold
How far is Brandfold from London?
Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
Where will the van go on our site?
Frequently, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. Facilities will decide the spot.
