How to compare vans

Step by step

The first sign we’ve arrived is usually the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. At a December wedding in Notting Dale, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.

  1. We start with a few details about your wedding.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Let us know the serving time

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A spot near your guests
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

As a London location, Notting Dale 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 will advise.

Popular choices

  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips

For planners, venues and organisers

Organising a club, school or community event in Notting Dale? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Do not forget your suppliers
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
  • Have bins ready for paper and trays
  • Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list

If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later, so the food is still fresh.

Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

Notting Dale: your questions answered

Which station is closest to Notting Dale?

Shepherds Bush station, about 0.7 miles south-west of the centre.

Could you trade in Emslie Horniman's Pleasance?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Can the van come for the evening?

Yes. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Will the van be in our photos?

It typically ends up in a few photos. Add bunting or lights for the photos.

Is there a non-fish option?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Generally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • How many people are eating
  • How long we serve
  • The date and time of year
  • Distance and any road charges

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
