Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Ridgeway
Is Ridgeway too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is generally ideal.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
