About our wedding fish and chip van in Tower Hill
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. Popular choices include curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater evening wedding food and vow renewal parties.

Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where the event is
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Send us the date, the address or SE1 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
How the day works
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. Winter weddings in Tower Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a cold buffet, fish and chips is hot and fresh, and nothing has been out for hours. Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
