Wedding fish and chip van in Crooked Billet, cooked to order
Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. People chat in the queue and come back with full hands. We’re often asked to cater weddings in a marquee or garden and barn weddings, serving curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
For a wedding in Crooked Billet, think about where a catering van can stop. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

DIY versus a fish and chip 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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Curry sauce

Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Who books wedding fish and chip van in Crooked Billet?
Evening food matters, and fish and chips is a crowd-pleaser. It’s a fun moment too.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Weddings with a seaside feel
- Laid-back receptions
- Food after the first dance
- Garden and marquee receptions
Marrying at Christ Church? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening.
Questions to ask before booking
- How late numbers can change
- Whether there is a minimum
- Payment terms and deposit
- What the price includes, item by item
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. A chip van gives a more filling, proper meal. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Something for guests to gather round
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- A clear quote before booking
See our prices page or the cost guide.
Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The minimum booking
- Distance and any road charges
- The date and time of year
- The menu and how many choices
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your wedding. Evening food at a Crooked Billet wedding often 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.

Crooked Billet questions
Which station is closest to Crooked Billet?
Raynes Park station, about 0.9 miles south of the centre.
Could you trade in Cannizaro Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What time is best for the van?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We’ll work to your timings.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Access wide and high enough for the van
As a London location, Crooked Billet 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.
