Wedding fish and chip van in Little London, fried fresh
The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. The queue becomes a place to catch up. On the menu are cod and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce, and we are frequently booked for garden and marquee receptions and laid-back receptions.
Near Little London, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your wedding, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. In Little London, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Clear the route for the van

Common questions in Little London
Do you come out to small places like Little London?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What time is best for the van?
At the time you choose. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Yes. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Send us your date and venue.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Count suppliers working late
Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn if you have a lot of guests.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
