Fish and chips is the meal almost everyone in Britain knows and likes. That is why a van works for so many kinds of event. Popular choices include curry sauce, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for christmas parties and company team days.

- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Fish and chip van hire in DA11: local guide
Across DA11, we serve 3 towns and 2 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Gravesend, Northfleet and Windmill Hill to a quiet hamlet: firm ground, access and agreed timings.
Northfleet: If you had Northfleet Urban Country Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park. Nearby historic houses include Cobham College (3.7 miles south-east). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for vans, so check before booking. Planning an evening event in Northfleet? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:00pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

What to tell us
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Your date and serving time
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
The fryers take a little while to heat, so we arrive well before service. If timings shift, we adapt.
Let everyone know when the food is ready, so they do not miss out.

Common questions in DA11
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Yes. A portion of fish, chips and peas is a proper meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
