Wedding fish and chip van for The Hyde events
Space, access and the venue
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
The Hyde is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

- Cod and chips
- Evening fish and chips

Wedding fish and chip van in The Hyde, fried fresh
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. We are often asked to cater second-day and after-party food and barn weddings, with cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
For a wedding in The Hyde, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Questions from The Hyde
What about parking in The Hyde?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
What’s the nearest station to The Hyde?
The Hyde has its own station: Hendon station.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
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.
What time will you serve?
Normally between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We will work to your timings.
Can you park near the barn?
Your venue decides, but near the reception works best. Send us a picture of the spot.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Events we cater in The Hyde
Rain does not stop the fryers, which takes one worry off the list.
The van suits big events and small ones. Common bookings include:
- Engagement celebrations

What a fish and chip van costs
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Parking and the way in
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of meals
- How far we travel
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Your date and serving time
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of where the van would go
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
After service, we pack up quietly and leave you to the party.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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.

The process
The first sign we’ve arrived is usually the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. At midsummer, sunset in The Hyde 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.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check access at the venue and send a price.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- On the day we set up in good time and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
