Party fish and chip van in Brasted Chart, cooked to order
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. We’re often asked to cater street parties and reunions and family get-togethers, with pie and chips, curry sauce and cod and chips.
Most parties in Brasted Chart are at home, and in London that generally means a drive or street parking. A drive is ideal; otherwise, check what’s allowed on the street. A photo helps. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

What the van needs
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
As a London location, Brasted Chart is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
How the day works
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Guests typically gather round the hatch once service starts. For a late-May party in Brasted Chart, sunset is around 8:50pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.
- Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
- We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
- Afterwards, we clear up and leave you to it.
Before we arrive
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Share the timings for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Brasted Chart questions
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Martin: can you come?
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.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you do street parties?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What do children eat?
Most children go for sausage and chips. Let us know numbers and ages.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The date and time of year
- Your choice of menu
- Whether a minimum applies
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A photo of the parking spot
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where you’d like the van to go
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.
