Vigo Village questions
Can the van park in Trosley Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
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’ll follow the site rules.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
When should we book for a summer party?
Weekends from May to September are busiest, so it pays to ask early.
Do you cover Vigo Village?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Vigo Village is within our area and the rest of Kent. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Let your neighbours know
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.

Parties in Vigo Village: homes, halls and local tips
Vigo Village is about 7 miles south of Gravesend, in Kent. In and around Vigo Village, the van can serve from a drive, a yard, a car park or a firm field. Vigo Village is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. You can also see our page for London, about 23 miles away.
A christening at Church of St Peter and St Paul followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. A green space like Trosley Country Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s. Vigo Village is within about 8 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
This part of Kent takes in DA13, and we can serve your party anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Beech Mast, Erskine Road and Admers Way, and the van can serve a party on any of them with a suitable parking spot. Close by, we cover parties in Culverstone Green (1 mile north-west), Harvel (1 mile north), Trottiscliffe (1 mile south), Fairseat (1 mile west) and Priestwood Green (2 miles north). Within a short drive, we also cover Maidstone (8 miles south-east), Dartford (10 miles north-west), Sevenoaks (8 miles south-west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (14 miles south), Gravesend (7 miles north) and Tonbridge (10 miles south).
Nearby you’ll also find Coldrum Long Barrow (0.8 miles south-east) and Leybourne Castle (3.1 miles south-east).
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

The process
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Autumn and winter parties in Vigo Village get dark early: about 7:00pm in late September and 3:50pm in December, so think about lighting by the van.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us a contact for the day
