Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Sundridge
Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. We are often asked to cater coastal-themed receptions and rustic farm weddings, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
In Sundridge, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
- Count suppliers working late
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
What the van needs
Every site is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
As a London location, Sundridge is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.
The process
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. Evening food at a Sundridge wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue and the date, then send a quote.
- We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
- On the day we set up in good time and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly once everyone has eaten.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Share the timings for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Sundridge
Is parking a problem for the van in Sundridge?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
Could you trade in Elmstead Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How many portions do we need?
That depends on your day. Many couples cater for most of the evening list.
Can you park near the barn?
Usually, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We’ll check access with you and the venue.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you come to Sundridge?
Yes, we do. Sundridge is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can the van be part of the photos?
It typically ends up in a few photos. Bunting or lights make it even better.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
