Questions from Twelve Oaks

Which station is closest to Twelve Oaks?

The closest is Robertsbridge station, roughly 3.4 miles away.

Do you come out to small places like Twelve Oaks?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Is grass a problem?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.

Do you serve visitors at events?

We do. Visitors love it.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

How long does set-up take?

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

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

For planners, venues and organisers

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

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

A chip van compared with other options

Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

15 questions to ask before booking

How it works

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. For a staff lunch in Twelve Oaks, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Send round an allergy question

For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

Prices and what affects them

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Parking and the way in
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Distance and any road charges

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Details that help

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Expected numbers

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. Just use our quote form.
