Wedding fish and chip van in Teddington, cooked to order
Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and hot fish and chips hits the spot. On the menu are mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for garden and marquee receptions and rustic farm weddings.
Couples in Teddington frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

FAQs for Teddington
Can the van park in Bushy Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Teddington?
Teddington station, in Teddington itself.
Will the van be in our photos?
Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We will agree the spot in advance.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.
Why us?
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- No kitchen needed
