Wedding fish and chip van for Manor House events

Wedding fish and chip van in Manor House, fried fresh

Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most use it for evening food, when it is most welcome. For wedding after-parties and pre-wedding get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips for your guests.

In Manor House, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

What happens on the day

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. At a December wedding in Manor House, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check access at the venue and send a price.
  3. We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
  4. We set up during the reception and start frying at the agreed time.
  5. We pack up when service is finished, leaving the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

FAQs for Manor House

Which station is closest to Manor House?

Harringay Green Lanes station, in Manor House itself.

Could you trade in Chestnuts Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Can the van be part of the photos?

Often, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Bunting or lights make it even better.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Do you need power or water?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.

Can the van park by the marquee?

That’s up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A photo of the area helps.

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

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.

15 questions to ask before you book

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

Why book with us

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • No surprises in your quote

Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

What a fish and chip van costs

There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The date and time of year
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Any minimum charge

There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • The venue or postcode
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Expected numbers
  • A photo of the space and the way in

Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. What matters most:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

Manor House is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

For event organisers in Manor House

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’ll work through them with you.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
