A chip van near Priestwood
Corporate fish and chip catering in Priestwood, cooked to order
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. On the menu are mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater workplace fundraising days and shift teams at depots and warehouses.
Rural businesses around Priestwood can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Lunchtime bookings in Priestwood are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Priestwood
Which station is closest to Priestwood?
The closest is Sole Street station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
Can the van park in Camer Park Country Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can the van park on grass?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Give us break and shift times
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.
What you get with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- We cover Priestwood and the whole of Kent
- A van that becomes part of the event

Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
