Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Primrose Hill
Can the van park in Regent's Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
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 normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We will check access with you and the venue.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What affects the price in Primrose Hill
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access and parking
- How long we serve
- The date and time of year
- Cod, haddock or both
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The address or venue name
- A picture of the parking spot
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Your date and serving time
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
As a London location, Primrose Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Put bins near the van
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
After service, we pack up quietly and leave you to the party.
Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.
What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Late-night snacks from the venue can be small. Fish and chips fills people up. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, 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 work through them with you.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
