Fresh fish and chips in Dulwich

Questions from Dulwich

We’re gathering after a service at Christ's Chapel of God's Gift: can you come?

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. Send us the address.

Could you trade in Dulwich Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Can the van park by the marquee?

That’s up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A photo of the area helps.

Will guests take photos at the van?

Many couples love having it in the photos. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Wedding fish and chip van in Dulwich, cooked to order

We agree timings with you and your venue, so the food fits your running order. Whether it’s vow renewals and anniversaries and laid-back receptions, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips for your guests.

London weddings around Dulwich frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

The process

You don’t need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your wedding. The frying and serving are down to us. Evening food at a Dulwich 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. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Clear the route for the van
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Organising for someone else?

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Put bins near the van
  • Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
  • Ask your venue about catering vans first
  • Flag coeliac guests early

It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.

Our booking checklist

What the van needs

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

Dulwich 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we serve

  • Evening fish and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The date and time of year
  • Parking and the way in
  • How many people are eating
  • The length of service

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Where the event is

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it’s one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.
