About our wedding fish and chip van in Mill Meads
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. We are frequently asked to cater food after the first dance and pre-wedding get-togethers, with curry sauce, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
London weddings around Mill Meads often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. The van needs somewhere off the road to park, such as a yard, car park or drive. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Step by step
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. At a December wedding in Mill Meads, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture 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
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Ensure the van can get in
