Peckham Bush questions
How far is Peckham Bush from London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Peckham Bush?
The closest is Yalding station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
What can guests choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Which fish do you use?
Let us know which you’d prefer and we will confirm what we can offer.

Planning a chip van in Peckham Bush

We take the van to 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Peckham Bush to London (about 28 miles away).
Churches such as Church of the Holy Trinity rarely have room for a van, but a hall or home close by normally does. Historic houses near Peckham Bush include Old Soar Manor (3.8 miles north-west). Historic venues often limit vehicles, so ask early if you are booking one.
Here we cover the TN12 postcode area, and we can serve your event anywhere in it.

Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan bins near the queue
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we arrive well before service. If plans change, tell us and we will adjust.
Tell people when the van opens, so they do not miss out.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Peckham Bush?
For food that suits almost everyone, fish and chips from a van is hard to beat. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
Why Peckham Bush hosts choose us
- A van that becomes part of the event
- No kitchen needed
- Quick service from the hatch
- A quote that spells everything out
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. By late September, sunset in Peckham Bush is around 7:00pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
- We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
- We cook to order and serve hot at the time you chose.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
