Wedding fish and chip van in Bermondsey, fried fresh
Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most use it for evening food, when it’s most welcome. Typical bookings include seaside-themed weddings and rustic farm weddings, serving curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
For a wedding in Bermondsey, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace. Winter weddings in Bermondsey are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- We start with a few details about your wedding.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.

Which station is closest to Bermondsey?
The closest is London Bridge station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
What if the weather’s bad?
