Throwing a party in Toy's Hill? A van means no cooking for you, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Toy's Hill parties: what to know
Toy's Hill is about 4 miles south-west of Sevenoaks, in Greater London. Across the TN16 area, we can fry fresh for your guests. Toy's Hill is one of 764 places in Greater London where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Toy's Hill to London (about 20 miles away).
A green space like Stubbs Wood Country Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, generally the council’s. For party guests on the train, the nearest station is Edenbridge station, about 3.2 miles south-west. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 7 miles of Toy's Hill, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.
This part of Greater London takes in TN16. Streets in the area include Scords Lane and Puddledock Lane, and the van can serve a party on any of them with a suitable parking spot. For parties just outside Toy's Hill, we cover Ide Hill (1 mile east), Brasted Chart (1 mile north), Goathurst Common (2 miles east), Brasted (2 miles north) and Sundridge (2 miles north). Within a short drive, we also cover Orpington (10 miles north), Thornton Heath (14 miles north-west), Croydon (12 miles north-west), Bromley (12 miles north), West Norwood (15 miles north-west) and Beckenham (13 miles north-west).

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A spot near your guests
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
As a London location, Toy's Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How easy the site is to reach
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Rough numbers for adults and children
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Buffets are simple but rarely memorable. A chip van gives guests something to talk about. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What you get with us
- A clear quote before booking
- All the chip-shop extras
- No kitchen needed
- Everything cooked to order at your event

Questions from Toy's Hill
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary at South End of Village Green?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can the van park in Stubbs Wood Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you cover Toy's Hill?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Toy's Hill and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Let your neighbours know
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Count children separately
With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
