About our wedding fish and chip van in Furzedown
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s often a yard or track close to the party. We serve curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater informal weddings and weddings with a seaside feel.
London weddings around Furzedown 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. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

FAQs for Furzedown
Can the van park in Figge's Marsh?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
We’re gathering after a service at St Paul's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Generally, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will agree the spot in advance.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.
