Questions from Langley Heath
Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is Langley Heath too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van come to our street party?
Frequently, yes. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to ask early.
