How our wedding fish and chip van works in Alscot
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and fish and chips is generous and warming late in the evening. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for pre-wedding get-togethers and food after the first dance.
Near Alscot, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed, and guests eat where they like. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

What else we do in Alscot
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Count suppliers working late
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we are ready at the agreed time.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
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.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Evening food at a Alscot wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Make sure the van can get in
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Will guests take photos at the van?

Typically, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We’ll check access with you and the venue.
