Wedding fish and chip van in Temple Mills, cooked to order

A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there’s generally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. We are often asked to cater vow renewals and anniversaries and coastal-themed receptions, with cod and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

For a wedding in Temple Mills, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The minimum booking
  • The number of meals
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

What to tell us

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.

How to compare vans

What the van needs

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

As a London location, Temple Mills is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Questions from Temple Mills

Which station is closest to Temple Mills?

Temple Mills has its own station: Stratford International station.

We’re gathering after a service at St Eleutherius: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

When should evening food go out?

Normally between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We’ll work to your timings.

Can the van park by the marquee?

That’s up to your venue, but near the reception works best. Send us a photo of the spot.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

Is grass a problem?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

Can you serve children?

Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

A chip van compared with other options

Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. A chip van gives a more filling, proper meal. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
