Our fish and chip van hire in DA6
The van needs no kitchen, no hall and no crockery. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. Typical bookings include fish and chip days at care homes and staff lunches and team days, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and sausage and chips.
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Upton: For anyone arriving by rail, Bexleyheath station serves Upton directly. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Upland Primary School, can book the van as a food stall.

Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a spot will not work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A short walk from the party
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Prices and what affects them

- How easy the site is to reach

- How far we travel
- Service time
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
With a barbecue, somebody ends up cooking all afternoon. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day.
