Corporate fish and chip catering in Hackington
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
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.

Hackington: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Hackington?
Canterbury West station, about 1.4 miles south of the centre.
Can the van park in Tyler Hill Meadow?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can we pay by invoice?
Ask us when you enquire and we will explain how booking and payment work.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
Is grass a problem?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Hackington?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
