How wedding fish and chip van works in Slough

Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. On the menu are curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for barn weddings and day-after gatherings.

Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop.

We start with a few details about your wedding.
You get an availability check and a clear quote.
Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.

Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

What you will pay

Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

Getting a price

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.

Around Slough

You’ll find the van serving near Herschel Grammar School, St Michael and All Angels and Westgate School. Nearby too are Herschel Park (1.1 miles south-east), The Godolphin Junior Academy (0.6 miles north) and The Moon and Spoon pub (0.6 miles south-east). For guests coming by rail, the closest station is Slough station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre. A little further out are Windsor Castle (2.1 miles south) and Municipal Borough of Slough (0.7 miles south-east). Green spaces within easy reach include Taplow Lake and Burnham Beeches.

Wedding settings across Slough

Couples in Slough choose everything from venues in Cippenham, Chalvey and Britwell to marquees in village gardens. Evening fish and chips is especially at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings.

Slough: Wedding photographers in the area often head for Burnham Beeches. Put the station on your invitation: Slough station, about 0.7 miles east, is the nearest station. In Slough, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

The day of the week
The length of service
Distance and any road charges
How easy the site is to reach

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

What to tell us

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

A picture of where the van would go
How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Rough numbers for adults and children
The date and when you’d like to eat

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

Include the band, photographer and venue staff
Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
Have bins ready for paper and trays
Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

What comes out of the fryer

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.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. Fish and chips stands out because it’s a proper hot meal.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Is the food cooked at the event?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Slough. See all areas.

What do you bring?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.

Can you park near the barn?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We’ll check access with you and the venue.
