Fresh fish and chips in Twickenham

A chip van compared with other options

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed, and guests eat where they like. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Why us?

  • No kitchen needed
  • All the chip-shop extras
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking

About our wedding fish and chip van in Twickenham

Couples love the relaxed feel: dresses, suits and paper portions of chips makes for memorable photos. We are often asked to cater wedding after-parties and informal weddings, serving cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.

London weddings around Twickenham often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. The van needs somewhere off the road to park, such as a yard, car park or drive. Plan this early with your venue. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Twickenham

Can the van park in Marble Hill Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

We are gathering after a service at Salvation Army: 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. Tell us where you will gather.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What’s on the menu?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

How long does set-up take?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Will guests take photos at the van?

Lots of couples ask for a picture at the van. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.

Working with your venue

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. For a summer wedding in Twickenham, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. We start with a few details about your wedding.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Allergies and dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Count suppliers working late
  • Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple

Remember the band, photographer and venue staff in your numbers.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

  • 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
