How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
- Your choice of menu
- Distance and any road charges
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A photo of the parking spot
Each quote is put together for your party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Bitchet Green is one of 922 places in Kent where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is London, about 22 miles away.
After a christening at a church like St Lawrence, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends. For party guests on the train, the closest railway station is Kemsing station, roughly 2.2 miles north of the centre.

Common questions in Bitchet Green
Can the van park in Ivy Hatch Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
Can you serve after a service at St Lawrence?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you park at our house?
That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll tell you honestly.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Sunset in Bitchet Green drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Planning the van’s spot
We’ll be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. What matters most:
- A spot near your guests
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
