How our wedding fish and chip van works in Stone Corner
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’s barn weddings and weddings with a seaside feel, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips and more.
A wedding in a small place like Stone Corner frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it is ready.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you. The main points are:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

In Stone Corner, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:15pm at midsummer, 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Stone Corner questions
Is Stone Corner too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve near the sea around Stone Corner?
Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How many portions do we need?
Typically most, not all. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we’ll advise.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
What affects the price in Stone Corner
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Any minimum charge
- The length of service
- Parking and the way in
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A photo of the parking spot
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Your date and serving time
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Do not forget your suppliers
It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
