About our wedding fish and chip van in Bentley Heath

Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. For laid-back receptions and evening food for day and evening guests, we can cook cod and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas for your guests.

In Bentley Heath, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have 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.

Our booking checklist

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

Why us?

  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • No surprises in your quote
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Classic food your guests already know

See our prices page or our guide to van hire costs.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Planning the van’s spot

Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A spot near your guests

Bentley Heath 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.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we serve

  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas
  • Evening fish and chips

  • How many people are eating
  • Parking and the way in
  • The day of the week
  • The length of service

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Confirm the van can park at the venue
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Make sure we have someone to call on the day

We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
