How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- How far we travel
- The date and time of year
- The number of meals
- The menu and how many choices
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. When you are ready, use our quote form.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Abingworth
Do you come out to small places like Abingworth?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you cover Abingworth?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Abingworth and across West Sussex. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Where will the van go at our venue?
That’s up to your venue, but near the reception works best. A picture of the area helps.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. See all areas.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Abingworth?
Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. Fish and chips stands out because it’s a proper hot meal. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Why us?
- Bookings across West Sussex, including Abingworth
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- No kitchen needed
- All the chip-shop extras
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Food your guests will love
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
