How our wedding fish and chip van works in Tulse Hill

Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. We’re frequently asked to cater garden and marquee receptions and barn and farm weddings, with sausage and chips, curry sauce and haddock and chips.

London weddings around Tulse Hill often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. We need off-road parking near the reception. Plan this early with your venue. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

Lighting nearby for evening events
Room in front of the hatch for a queue
The site’s agreement to a catering van

As a London location, Tulse Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Our booking checklist

The process

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. At a December wedding in Tulse Hill, it’s 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.
