Wedding fish and chip van in South Kenton, cooked to order
We agree timings with you and your venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. On the menu are curry sauce, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we’re frequently booked for informal weddings and food after the first dance.
In South Kenton, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

South Kenton: your questions answered
Could you trade in Preston Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What about parking in South Kenton?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Of course. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Send us your date and venue.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What the van needs
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
South Kenton 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What happens on the day
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. Evening food at a South Kenton wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.

After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
