About our fish and chip van for events in Sevington
The smell of fish and chips brings a queue to any fête. A chip van gives organisers a hot-food trader that almost everyone wants. We’re frequently asked to cater crew and volunteer catering and sports club events and race days, with curry sauce, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
A fête near Sevington might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we’ll plan for it. We cook inside the van, right where your visitors are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
About the food
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.
Where the van can park in Sevington
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A clear route onto the pitch
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Somewhere firm if it rains
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Common questions in Sevington
Is Sevington close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Could you trade in Ashford Green Corridors?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van come to our fair?
Often, yes. Get in touch with the details.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Visitors will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. At midsummer, events in Sevington stay light until about 9:15pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We confirm the date, what we need on the pitch and any documents.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
- At the end, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Have a level parking spot ready

What else we do in Sevington
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
- Arrange bins and waste collection
- Agree the terms in writing
- Tell us about the pitch
Mark out the queue area away from walkways, especially near rides and games.
A spot near the entrance or main ring works well.
