Party fish and chip van for East Street events
Party fish and chip van in East Street, fried fresh
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. Typical bookings include garden parties and summer get-togethers and family parties with children, with cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
In a small place like East Street, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
The process
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. A summer party in East Street 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
Party venues around East Street
East Street is about 6 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Parties in East Street are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. East Street is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. Our bookings stretch from East Street to Canterbury (about 10 miles away).
Guests arriving by train should know that Sandwich station, about 1.8 miles south-east, is the nearest station. Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as Church of St Nicholas, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards. The coast is within about 6 miles, so a chip van is a natural choice.
For parties in CT3, we just need to know where the van can park and roughly how many guests. Nearby, we also serve parties in Cooper Street (1 mile north), Marshborough (1 mile south), Woodnesborough (1 mile south), Sandwich (2 miles east) and Great Stonar (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Canterbury (10 miles west), Margate (8 miles north-east), Dover (10 miles south), Folkestone (15 miles south-west), Ramsgate (6 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (8 miles north-east).

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a DIY barbecue, the host is not stuck cooking all afternoon. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your party is.
