Why choose a fish and chip van in Nunhead?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is one dish, and some guests don’t eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why book with us
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Nunhead
A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there’s often a yard or track close to the party. For rustic farm weddings and weddings in a marquee or garden, we can cook curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
London weddings around Nunhead frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
Remember the band, photographer and venue staff in your numbers.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

Nunhead: your questions answered
We’re gathering after a service at Saint Antony with Saint Silas: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Nunhead?
Nunhead station, in Nunhead itself.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

A closer look at the menu
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Nunhead is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the hatch
- Curry sauce
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Evening fish and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
How it works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. In Nunhead, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.
