Wedding fish and chip van in Strawberry Hill

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Strawberry Hill

It’s relaxed and a little bit fun: dresses, suits and paper portions of chips makes for great photos. Popular choices include curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we’re frequently booked for garden and marquee receptions and rustic farm weddings.

London weddings around Strawberry Hill frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. We need off-road parking near the reception. Plan this early with your venue. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.

The process

There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your wedding. The frying and serving are down to us. At midsummer, sunset in Strawberry Hill is about 9:20pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Share the timings for the day

Planning help

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

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.

About the food

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. A chip van gives a more filling, proper meal that guests remember. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Do not forget your suppliers
  • Have bins ready for paper and trays
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets

Remember the band, photographer and venue staff in your numbers.

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

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

As a London location, Strawberry Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
