About our fish and chip van for events in Brasted Chart
We can trade to the public or feed your volunteers. We are often asked to cater sports club events and race days and horse and dog shows, with sausage and chips, chips and cod and chips.
In Brasted Chart, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Organisers typically need council permission for public spaces, and the van needs a pitch it can reach. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Brasted Chart: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Brasted Chart?
The closest is Sevenoaks station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Is parking a problem for the van in Brasted Chart?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Brasted Chart.
Do you do crew food?
Yes, at a time that suits your schedule.
Can you come to a school event?
Yes, with the school’s permission for the van on site. Tell us the date and where the van would park.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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 normally simpler.
About the food
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
How the day works
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. For an evening event in Brasted Chart, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
