How our wedding fish and chip van works in Bounds Green
The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests wander out to the hatch. It turns evening food into part of the celebration. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for engagement parties and evening wedding food.
For a wedding in Bounds Green, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

For event organisers in Bounds Green
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is pork only. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Why book with us
- A clear quote before booking
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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.

Questions from Bounds Green
Is parking a problem for the van in Bounds Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Could you trade in O. R. Tambo Recreation Ground?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Often, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Bunting or lights make it even better.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
When should evening food go out?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We will work to your timings.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Where the van can park in Bounds Green
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Bounds Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
