Wedding fish and chip van in Greenford, cooked to order
A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there’s frequently a yard or track close to the party. We’re frequently asked to cater barn and farm weddings and marquee and garden weddings, with curry sauce, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
For a wedding in Greenford, think about where a catering van can stop. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Greenford
Is parking a problem for the van in Greenford?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Can the van park in Northala Fields?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you cover Greenford?
We do. Greenford is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
What time is best for the van?
Usually between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We will work to your timings.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
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.
Planning the van’s spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- A spot near your guests
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, Greenford 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’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
On the menu in Greenford
- Mushy peas

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

What comes out of the fryer

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
