Wedding fish and chip van in Chelsea Harbour, cooked to order
Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. For evening wedding food and engagement parties, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips for your guests.
For a wedding in Chelsea Harbour, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Chelsea Harbour
Can you serve after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What about parking in Chelsea Harbour?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in Chelsea Harbour?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your wedding and we will send a quote.
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.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Often, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

About the food
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. Evening food at a Chelsea Harbour wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.
- We start with a few details about your wedding.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A spot near your guests
As a London location, Chelsea Harbour is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
On the menu in Chelsea Harbour
- Haddock and chips

A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a cold evening buffet, a chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer, and nothing sits out drying up. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
