A chip van near Farthing Green
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. In Farthing Green, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Tell us when you want to eat

Common questions in Farthing Green
Is Farthing Green close to London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
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 will follow the site rules.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
For event organisers in Farthing Green
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Send round an allergy question
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.
Why book with us
- A quote that spells everything out
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
