Food your guests will love

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Berry's Green

Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. For laid-back receptions and anniversary celebrations, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.

London weddings around Berry's Green often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. The van needs somewhere off the road to park, such as a yard, car park or drive. Plan this early with your venue. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

For planners, venues and organisers

Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

Organising a club, school or community event in Berry's Green? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Takeaway run or book a van?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

How the day works

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. At midsummer, sunset in Berry's Green is about 9:20pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the date, then send a quote.
  3. We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
  4. We set up during the reception and start frying at the agreed time.
  5. We pack up when service is finished, leaving the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Make sure the van can get in
  • Give us a contact for the day

Berry's Green questions

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Is parking a problem for the van in Berry's Green?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.

When do you arrive?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.

Do you come to Berry's Green?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Berry's Green. For a quote, use our quote form.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

When should evening food go out?

Usually between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We will fit your running order.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How many people are eating
  • The length of service

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • The address or venue name
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A picture of where the van would go
