Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Service time
  • How far we travel
  • Any minimum charge

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

What we need to know

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the van would park
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

How the day works

When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. For a late-May party in Wingham, sunset is around 8:45pm; at midsummer it is about 9:15pm. After dark, light the area around the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Clear the route for the van

About the food

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

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 cooks in front of your guests instead.

Wingham parties: what to know

Wingham is about 6 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. From the centre of Wingham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. We take the van to all 922 towns and villages across Kent. We serve events right across the region, from Wingham to Canterbury (6 miles away).

Historic houses near Wingham include Goodnestone Park (2 miles south). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on vehicles and caterers, so for most parties a home or hired hall is simpler. For guests coming by train, Adisham station, about 2.3 miles south, is the nearest station.

This part of Kent takes in CT3, so your party can be anywhere in it. Whether your party is on High Street, St Mary's Meadow and Harris's Alley or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. If your venue is just outside Wingham, we also cover Broomhill (1 mile north), Well Head (1 mile south-east), Wingham Green (1 mile west), Wingham Well (1 mile south-west) and Shatterling (1 mile north-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Canterbury (6 miles west), Margate (10 miles north-east), Dover (10 miles south), Folkestone (13 miles south), Ramsgate (10 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (11 miles north-east).

Other landmarks nearby include St Martins Hospital (4.7 miles west).

  • Pubs nearby include The Red Lion pub (within half a mile south-west)

Organising for someone else?

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Having the party at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Planning for dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Mention the van to neighbours
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.

Finish with the birthday cake.

Wingham: your questions answered

We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Is Wingham too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Can you park at our house?

That depends on the space and the route in. Mention anything tight, and we will advise.

What’s on the menu?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Can the van come to Wingham?

We do. Wingham is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

When do you arrive?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
