Wedding fish and chip van for Peckham events
About our wedding fish and chip van in Peckham
We agree timings with you and your venue, so the food fits your running order. We serve mushy peas, curry sauce and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings in a marquee or garden and rustic farm weddings.
London weddings around Peckham often 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 bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Peckham
Could you trade in Brimmington Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is parking a problem for the van in Peckham?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Will the van be in our photos?
It usually ends up in a few photos. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
Do you come to Peckham?
We do. Peckham is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
Can the van park on grass?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

What else we do in Peckham
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: 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.
Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
- Plan bins by the hatch
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
A chip van compared with other options
Evening food can be anything from bacon rolls to pizza. Fish and chips stands out because it is a proper hot meal that guests remember. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.
Why book our van in Peckham
