The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.
About our party fish and chip van in Milebush
A chip van also works for street parties, once the council has agreed the road closure. Typical bookings include retirement celebrations and street parties and neighbourhood events, with cod and chips, curry sauce and pie and chips.
Near Milebush, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Numbers
- How long we serve
- Your choice of menu
- Whether a minimum applies
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. We set everything out in your quote.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many people, including children
Each quote is put together for your party. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.

Hosting a chip van party in Milebush
Milebush is about 6 miles south of Maidstone, in Kent. Anywhere in TN12, we can fry fresh for your guests. We take the van to 922 places in Kent. Our bookings stretch from Milebush to Canterbury (26 miles away).
A christening at St Michael and All Angels Church followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. Milebush is within about 7 miles of the High Weald National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
Here we cover the TN12 postcode area, and we can serve your party anywhere in it. We can serve a party on streets such as Maidstone Road and Milebush Lane or the roads around them, wherever the van can park. For parties just outside Milebush, we cover St Ann's Green (1 mile east), Underling Green (1 mile north-east), Wanshurst Green (1 mile south-east), Cross-at-Hand (2 miles east) and Marden Thorn (2 miles south). Further out, we also take the van to Maidstone (6 miles north), Sittingbourne (15 miles north-east), Sevenoaks (15 miles north-west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (11 miles west), Tonbridge (10 miles west) and Kings Hill (7 miles north-west).
Well-known places in the area include Sutton Valence Castle (4.2 miles north-east) and Oakwood Hospital (5.7 miles north).
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Milebush?
A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van gives people a choice. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the van can get in
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Milebush: your questions answered
How far is Milebush from London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come to venues in the High Weald 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 there a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
