Fresh fish and chips in Wrotham Heath
Wedding fish and chip van in Wrotham Heath, fried fresh
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. For engagement parties and food after the first dance, we can cook haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce for your guests.
Near Wrotham Heath, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets

- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Wrotham Heath
Could you trade in Trosley Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Margaret: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can the van be part of the photos?
Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
