Wedding fish and chip van in Little Stanmore
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 don’t eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No kitchen needed
- Bookings across Greater London, including Little Stanmore
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

About our wedding fish and chip van in Little Stanmore
Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. People chat in the queue and come back with full hands. On the menu are cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater vow renewal parties and coastal-themed receptions.
For a wedding in Little Stanmore, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Common questions in Little Stanmore
Could you trade in Canons Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Little Stanmore?
The closest is Mill Hill Broadway station, roughly 1.6 miles away.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Send us your date and venue.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Little Stanmore.

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Any minimum charge
- The menu and how many choices
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Rough numbers for adults and children

What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. In Little Stanmore, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, 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 3:55pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
