Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Do not forget your suppliers
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
Wedding fish and chip van in Gipsy Hill, fried fresh
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. Whether it is garden and marquee receptions and laid-back receptions, we can cook cod and chips, curry sauce and haddock and chips for your guests.
In Gipsy Hill, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Gipsy Hill questions
Is parking a problem for the van in Gipsy Hill?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to Gipsy Hill?
Gipsy Hill station, in Gipsy Hill itself.
What time will you serve?

Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Not every guest eats in the evening. We will talk it through when we quote.

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Gipsy Hill.
Can you park near the barn?
That is up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A photo of the area helps.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
What a fish and chip van costs
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Access and parking
- The number of meals
- How far we travel
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.

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A photo of the parking spot
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
What the van needs
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
As a London location, Gipsy Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Evening food at a Gipsy Hill 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.
- We start with a few details about your wedding.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
