Funeral and wake catering in Wealdstone

Before you choose a spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

Wealdstone is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What we serve

  • Pie and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Gravy
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Mushy peas

In Wealdstone, a hall with parking is frequently the easiest option. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

What a fish and chip van costs

The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • How long we serve
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How far we travel

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wake.

Details that help

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The address or venue name
  • The date and time of the event
  • Where the van would park

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

Should I sort the food myself?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A pub or venue may cater a wake themselves. A van works where they do not, or at home. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

How it works

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your wake. Sunset in Wealdstone is about 7:05pm in late September and about 3:55pm in December; ensure older guests have a well-lit route to the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Questions from Wealdstone

What about parking in Wealdstone?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Can you serve after a service at Holy Trinity Church?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

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.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

How long does set-up take?

We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
