Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Mill Hill
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. For weddings in a marquee or garden and day-after gatherings, we can cook mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Couples in Mill Hill often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The van needs somewhere off the road to park, such as a yard, car park or drive. Plan this early with your venue. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

The price comes down to a few factors:
- The day of the week
- Your choice of menu
- Any minimum charge
- Distance and any road charges
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Allergies and diets you know about

- Anything awkward about the way in
Each quote is put together for your wedding. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
How it works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. For a summer wedding in Mill Hill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Share the timings for the day
