Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Do not forget your suppliers
  • Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple

After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Roundshaw

At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater rustic farm weddings and food after the first dance.

Couples in Roundshaw frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. Plan this early with your venue. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Organising for someone else?

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Roundshaw? 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.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Planning the van’s spot

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

Roundshaw 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.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

From the hatch

  • Mushy peas
  • Curry sauce
  • Cod and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Evening fish and chips

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The minimum booking
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The day of the week
  • Numbers

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Details that help

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • The venue or postcode
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

15 questions to ask before booking

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
