Wedding fish and chip van for Bickley events

Wedding fish and chip van in Bickley, fried fresh

Couples love the relaxed feel: dresses, suits and paper portions of chips makes for great photos. We are frequently asked to cater weddings with a seaside feel and engagement celebrations, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.

Couples in Bickley frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. 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.

Step by step

You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Winter weddings in Bickley are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and 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 quietly once everyone has eaten.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Share the timings for the day

For event organisers in Bickley

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

About the food

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Where the van can park in Bickley

If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. What matters most:

  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A short walk from the party

As a London location, Bickley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

From the hatch

  • Curry sauce

Ask your venue about vehicle access for the van.

For weddings in BR1, BR2 and BR7, we just need to know where the van can park and a serving time.

We also serve nearby towns such as London (9 miles north-west), City of Westminster (12 miles north-west), Marylebone (12 miles north-west), Kensington (13 miles north-west), St Pancras (11 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (10 miles north-west).

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Ask your venue about catering vans first
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
  • Don’t forget your suppliers

Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.

A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

What affects the price in Bickley

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many people are eating
  • The day of the week
  • Your choice of menu
  • Parking and the way in

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we need to know

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

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Expected numbers

Bickley questions

We are gathering after a service at Church of St George: can you come?

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. Tell us where you will gather.

Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

What do we need to supply?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.

Can the van come to Bickley?

Yes, we do. We serve events in Bickley and across Greater London. Send us your date to check availability.

Do you do evening food for weddings?

Yes, that is what most couples book us for. We will fit around your first dance and band.

Is grass a problem?

Generally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Is the fish gluten-free?

No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

What can guests choose from?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
