Funeral and wake catering in Belgravia, cooked to order
Funerals are frequently arranged at short notice, so contact us as soon as you can. Typical bookings include remembering a loved one’s favourite food and pub wakes, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
In Belgravia, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. In London, the van needs off-road parking or a legal space nearby, which we can help you think through. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

What else we do in Belgravia
Why choose a fish and chip van in Belgravia?
A formal meal does not always suit. Fish and chips lets people mingle. Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why book our van in Belgravia
- A clear quote before booking
- No kitchen needed
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- We cover Belgravia and the whole of Greater London
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
As a London location, Belgravia is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your wake is.

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Common questions in Belgravia
Which station is closest to Belgravia?
London Victoria station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
Could you trade in Green Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
How many people should we cater for?
Start with a rough number, and we will firm it up nearer the day.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What if timings change?
We plan for delays. We’ll work to your contact on the day.
How the day works
We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. In winter, it is dark in Belgravia by about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting near the van. In summer, there is daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You, or your funeral director, tell us the date, the place and rough numbers.
- We check where the van can park and send a clear price.
- We agree a time to arrive and when food should be ready, allowing for the service running over.
- On the day we set up quietly and serve when guests are ready.
- We pack up when everyone has eaten and leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day

- Give us a contact for the day
