Questions from Anvil Green

Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Is Anvil Green too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

What can guests choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Can you serve children?

Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.

What do you need at the house?

Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.

What do children eat?

Sausage and chips, typically. Let us know numbers and ages.

How soon do we need to book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

When should we book for a summer party?

Summer weekends go first. Contact us with your date.

Before you choose a spot

If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Send us a photo of the drive
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Check the street’s parking rules
  • Give us separate numbers for children

We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, and serve as the party carries on.

Your own cake makes the perfect finish.

Is a fish and chip van right for your party?

Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. A van fries on the spot. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Why book with us

  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • We cover Anvil Green and the whole of Kent
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Something for guests to gather round

How the day works

Here’s how the day usually runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. A summer party in Anvil Green stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check access for the van and send a quote.
  3. We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

DIY versus a fish and chip van

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
