Wedding fish and chip van in Temple Ewell, cooked to order
Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. For engagement celebrations and rustic farm weddings, we can cook curry sauce, mushy peas and sausage and chips for your guests.
Near Temple Ewell, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

FAQs for Temple Ewell
Can you serve near the sea around Temple Ewell?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Will the van be in our photos?
Lots of couples ask for a picture at the van. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Do you cover Temple Ewell?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Temple Ewell and the rest of Kent. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Can the van park by the marquee?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We’ll agree the spot in advance.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A clear area by the serving hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
