CNN Business were in Whitstable a couple of weeks ago investigating the impact of Brexit and the Ukraine War on fish and chip shops. The VC Jones team were asked to take part and be interviewed. Watch the impact of world politics on your favourite takeaway here.
Well, if you're celebrating the Jubilee this weekend, you need to know that the Queen's favourite takeaway is fish and chips. More specifically, cod, chips and mushy peas.
No, unfortunately, you can’t. That’s because the staff that monitor our messages and emails aren’t always physically at the shop. You can order by phoning 01227 272703 or 07907 037999.
𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐩𝐫𝐞-𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧?
Again, no. Our counter runs on a first-come, first-served basis (like all other fish and chip shops).
𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬?
Yes. You can find all our opening hours on our Facebook page and our website www.vcjones.co.uk

Unless it’s for a big group, 15 people or more, we don’t take restaurant reservations. Don’t panic though, there won’t be a long wait if our restaurant is full.
𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐠𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐧?
Yes, it does, but our chips are gluten-free as they are prepared and cooked away from all gluten sources.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐯𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬?
Well, we cook everything in beef dripping, so the choices are a cheese and onion pasty, mushy peas, or a gherkin/pickled onion.
Yes, it's our day off, the day where we try not to check our emails or messages. We probably won't reply when we're shut (or at 5am on a Sunday morning) but don't be upset, we will get back to you. ... See MoreSee Less

Someone found this ring on the beach and bought it into the shop so we could post it out on social media.
It has an interesting inscription, we’ll show the start of it. If it’s yours it’s safe and sound on our take away counter. ... See MoreSee Less

Even on a normal day it gets pretty hot behind our fryers and in the shop.
So, we’ve decided that as the mercury looks to hit 40c (and that’s before we’ve even started frying) we’ll be closed tomorrow.
We’ll be reopening on Wednesday. ... See MoreSee Less

Happy National Fish and Chip Shop Day.
Look at these beauties, fresh out of the fryer.
It’s an odd time for chippies around the country, prices and costs are going through the roof.
Wherever you are in the country, pop into your local chip shop and treat yourself to a lovely bag of chips. ... See MoreSee Less
