How our fish and chip van hire works in Brasted
Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. Typical bookings include care home visits and work Christmas parties, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips.
In Brasted, the van might park on a drive, in a church car park or in a works yard. Let us know about the route in. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.

Brasted questions
Is parking a problem for the van in Brasted?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
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.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Can fish and chips be the only food?
Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not 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.
What is fish and chip van hire?
We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How much does a fish and chip van cost in Brasted?

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering a takeaway for a crowd means long waits and food that cools on the journey. A van fries on the spot, so it’s crisp when it’s handed over. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
How we price a fish and chip van
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How easy the site is to reach
- How long we serve
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. In Brasted, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- Tell us what you’re 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.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
