Wedding fish and chip van for Vauxhall events
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Wedding fish and chip van in Vauxhall, fried fresh
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so the food fits your running order. Popular choices include curry sauce, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we’re frequently booked for weddings with a seaside feel and rustic farm weddings.
Couples in Vauxhall frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Marrying at St Peter's Church? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening. If you want countryside in your photos, St. James's Park Lake is not far, and the countryside around Vauxhall suits an outdoor reception.
We serve weddings across the SE11, SW1P and SW8 postcode area. We can serve a wedding on streets such as Gibson Road, Langley Lane and Randall Road, as long as there’s somewhere for the van.

How the day works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. Evening food at a Vauxhall wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Vauxhall questions
Which station is closest to Vauxhall?
Vauxhall has its own station: Vauxhall station.
Can you serve after a service at St Peter's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
How many portions do we need?
Usually most, not all. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we’ll advise.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options before booking.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We’ll fit around your first dance and band.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
