A chip van near Marylebone

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

For evening food with a bit of fun, a fish and chip van is a great choice at a wedding in Marylebone. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Why book our van in Marylebone

  • No kitchen needed
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

Wedding fish and chip van in Marylebone, fried fresh

Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. We’re often asked to cater weddings with a seaside feel and day-after gatherings, serving sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.

In Marylebone, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

The menu, dish by dish

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

The process

The first sign we’ve arrived is normally the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Evening food at a Marylebone wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Share the timings for the day

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.

  • Your date and serving time

Where the van can park in Marylebone

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

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

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple
  • Confirm the van can park at the venue
  • Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
  • Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list

We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we are ready at the agreed time.

A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

Working with your venue

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

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

Common questions in Marylebone

Could you trade in St Anne's Churchyard?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Which station is closest to Marylebone?

Bond Street station, in Marylebone itself.

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 confirm the rest.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

When should evening food go out?

Whenever suits your day. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
