Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A spot near your guests
Little Venice is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

The process
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. For a summer wedding in Little Venice, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening fish and chips is often served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

A closer look at the menu
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
