Gillingham (Kent) station, about 4.2 miles south-west of the centre.

Roughly 30 miles from the centre of London.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in North Street?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your wedding and we will send a quote.
Will guests take photos at the van?
It typically ends up in a few photos. Bunting or lights make it even better.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
