Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Put bins near the van
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we’re ready at the agreed time.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, Brockley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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 before booking.

What else we do in Brockley
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The date and time of year
- How long we serve
- The minimum booking
- Cod, haddock or both
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
- 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
