Wedding fish and chip van in New Malden, cooked to order
Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. The queue becomes a place to catch up. Whether it’s anniversary celebrations and pre-wedding get-togethers, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips and more.
Couples in New Malden frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Working with your venue
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Where the van can park in New Malden
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
As a London location, New Malden is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the day works
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Evening food at a New Malden wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
