A chip van near Moor Street
The process
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Guests generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. At midsummer, sunset in Moor Street is about 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Wedding fish and chip van in Moor Street, cooked to order
At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. Whether it is weddings with a seaside feel and wedding after-parties, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Near Moor Street, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
On the menu in Moor Street
- Curry sauce
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Evening fish and chips
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short if you have a lot of guests.
Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.

Questions from Moor Street
What’s the nearest station to Moor Street?
The closest is Rainham (Kent) station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Is Moor Street too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes. It is our most popular wedding booking. Send us your date and venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you come to Moor Street?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Moor Street and the rest of Medway. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Working with your venue
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
