For a rural spot like Rodmersham Green, the setting does a lot of the work. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Count children separately
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
A short menu keeps service quick, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
Let everyone know when the food is ready, so they don’t miss out.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Rodmersham Green
Which station is closest to Rodmersham Green?
Sittingbourne station, about 1.7 miles north of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Rodmersham Green?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Which fish do you use?
We serve cod and haddock; we’ll agree the choice when we quote.
Is it a full meal?
Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks right there, so the batter is still crisp. Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
