Ebbsfleet Valley questions
We’re gathering after a service at Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

About 18 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
