Questions from Brightling
Which station is closest to Brightling?
Robertsbridge station, about 3.3 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Brightling?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Do you have documents for our site?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
What can staff choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
How does payment work for businesses?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Where will the van go on our site?
Your facilities team decides, but car parks and yards generally work well.
The process
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Summer events after work in Brightling have light until about 9:15pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Send us 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.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
