About our wedding fish and chip van in Somers Town
Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. People chat in the queue and come back with full hands. Whether it is coastal-themed receptions and pre-wedding get-togethers, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce and more.
Couples in Somers Town often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The van needs somewhere off the road to park, such as a yard, car park or drive. Plan this early with your venue. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
Your venue coordinator or a nominated friend can let us know if things run late, so the food is still fresh.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Somers Town?
A second sit-down meal in the evening is expensive and formal. A van keeps it relaxed, and guests eat where they like. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Bookings across Greater London, including Somers Town
- A van that becomes part of the event
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

How it works
Here’s how the day normally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. In Somers Town, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.

- You hear back on the date and the price.
