Looking after everyone

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Mention the van to neighbours
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Check the street’s parking rules
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

What happens on the day

The first sign we’ve arrived is typically the smell. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Midsummer parties in Bennett End stay bright until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Bennett End: your questions answered

How far is Bennett End from London?

About 35 miles from central London.

We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?

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.

What can guests choose from?

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

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Is there something for children?

Yes. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

How fast is service?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Can you park on the road outside?

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

Will the van fit on our drive?

Usually, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.

A closer look at the menu

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.

Takeaway run or book a van?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Planners, venues and businesses

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
