The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. A summer party in Northfleet Green stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Ensure the van can get in
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

FAQs for Northfleet Green
Can the van park in Castle Hill Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Northfleet Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Let your neighbours know
With children, food about an hour in works well.

Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a DIY barbecue, a chip van means nobody is stuck at the grill. Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why book with us

- Hot food handed straight over
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
