About our wedding fish and chip van in Radfield
Evening guests may have come straight from work, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Hot food fried to order looks after both. Whether it is vow renewal parties and evening wedding food, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
There is something special about a country wedding near Radfield, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Questions from Radfield
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Lawrence?
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.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes, that is what most couples book us for. We’ll fit around your first dance and band.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
For planners, venues and organisers
Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Radfield? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
Diets, allergies and planning
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:
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Put bins near the van
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
After service, we pack up quietly and leave you to the party.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.

The process
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Evening food at a Radfield wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:15pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us a contact for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
Ask for a quote
Send us the date, the address or ME9 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.
