Fresh fish and chips in Grove Park

Wedding fish and chip van in Grove Park, fried fresh

Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there is often a yard or track close to the party. We are often asked to cater engagement celebrations and evening food for day and evening guests, serving mushy peas, curry sauce and haddock and chips.

Couples in Grove Park frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Grove Park: your questions answered

Is parking a problem for the van in Grove Park?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Which station is closest to Grove Park?

Grove Park has its own station: Chiswick station.

Can you park near the barn?

Your venue decides, but near the reception works best. Send us a photo of the spot.

How many evening guests should we cater for?

It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.

What do you bring?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

Can the van come for the evening?

Evening food is exactly what we do. We will agree a serving time around your running order.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

What affects the price in Grove Park

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Any minimum charge
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • How easy the site is to reach

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. Your quote spells it all out.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Where the event is
  • Your date and serving time
  • Expected numbers
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can send us your details through our quote form.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Compared with a cold evening buffet, fish and chips is hot and fresh, and nothing sits out drying up. Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book with us

  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • A clear quote before you book

15 questions to ask before you book

Before you choose a spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

As a London location, Grove Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Should I sort the food myself?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.

How it works

You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. At a December wedding in Grove Park, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

How to prepare

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
