Wedding fish and chip van in Belvedere
Wedding fish and chip van in Belvedere, cooked to order
We park close to the reception, and guests wander out to the hatch. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for garden and marquee receptions and vow renewal parties.
In Belvedere, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Belvedere questions
What about parking in Belvedere?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Can the van park in Lesnes Abbey Woods?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.

Planning the van’s spot

- Confirmation that the van can park there

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
