Questions from Stone Street
Can you serve after a service at St Lawrence?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Stone Street?
The closest is Kemsing station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What happens when we hire the van?
The van comes to you, fry everything to order, and serve at the time you want.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

About the food
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- A short menu helps everyone
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
Fish and chips is best eaten right away, so we fry to order as the queue moves.
Plan cover near the hatch if rain is possible.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Stone Street?
Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, nobody misses the event. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How it works
You do not need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your event. The frying and serving are down to us. Light matters for evening service: around Stone Street, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Share the timings for the day
