About our corporate fish and chip catering in The Brents
Few staff treats are as popular as a fish and chip van lunch. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. We’re frequently asked to cater end-of-project celebrations and open days, serving mushy peas, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in The Brents
Is The Brents close to London?
About 44 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to The Brents?
Faversham station, about 0.6 miles south of the centre.
Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you come to The Brents?

Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, everyone gets a break. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
What you get with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- A clear quote before you book
- Something for staff to gather round
How it works
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Lunchtime bookings in The Brents are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Clear the route for the van
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or ME13 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.
