Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Hadlow Down

Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

How far is Hadlow Down from London?

About 37 miles from central London.

What do you bring?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

What will facilities need from you?

Send us your site’s list, and we will confirm what we can provide.

Is grass a problem?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How much space do you need?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

What if we only have street parking?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

How it works

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your staff event in Hadlow Down. After-work summer events in Hadlow Down have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

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 typically the easier option.

Food your guests will love

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

For event organisers in Hadlow Down

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Hadlow Down? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
