How our wedding fish and chip van works in Foxbury
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. Popular choices include haddock and chips, curry sauce and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater vow renewals and anniversaries and garden and marquee receptions.
For a wedding in Foxbury, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
As a London location, Foxbury 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.

What happens on the day

- We check the venue and the date, then send a quote.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- We cook to order on the day and serve right on cue.

Common questions in Foxbury
We’re gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Is parking a problem for the van in Foxbury?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Service time

What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The address or venue name

- Allergies and diets you know about
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
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. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A second sit-down meal in the evening is expensive and formal. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal, and guests eat where they like. 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.

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
- Put bins near the van
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
