A fish and chip van or other catering?

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Green Hailey
Is Green Hailey close to London?
About 34 miles from central London.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Dunstan: 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.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Is there a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include them in your numbers.
Do you need power or water from us?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.
How far ahead should we book a party?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Get in touch with your date.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Where the van can park in Green Hailey
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

- Whether a minimum applies
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- Roughly how many people, including children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

- A photo of the space and the way in
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply

With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
