Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Burnt Oak
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. For evening food for day and evening guests and pre-wedding get-togethers, we can cook curry sauce, haddock and chips and mushy peas for your guests.
In Burnt Oak, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Burnt Oak questions
Can you serve after a service at John Keble Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Could you trade in Watling Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Yes, that’s what most couples book us for. We will fit around your first dance and band.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What time is best for the van?
At the time you choose. After the first dance is the most popular time.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace. Evening food at a Burnt Oak wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Put bins near the van
Your venue coordinator or a nominated friend can let us know if things run late.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Burnt Oak?
Late-night snacks from the venue can be small. Fish and chips fills people up. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
