Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Totteridge
A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there is frequently a yard or track close to the party. For barn weddings and coastal-themed receptions, we can cook curry sauce, haddock and chips and sausage and chips and more.
For a wedding in Totteridge, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Totteridge questions
Is parking a problem for the van in Totteridge?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
What’s the nearest station to Totteridge?
Oakleigh Park station, about 1.5 miles east of the centre.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can the van park by the marquee?
Your venue decides, but close to the party is best. Send us a picture of the spot.
What affects the price in Totteridge
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The minimum booking
- The day of the week
- The length of service
- Access and parking
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

To speed things up, tell us:
- The date and time of the event

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Golden-hour photos in Totteridge at midsummer come around 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 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 when service is finished, leaving the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
