How wedding fish and chip van works in Surrey

Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s usually somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. We serve cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are often booked for informal weddings and second-day and after-party food.

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for.

You tell us your date, venue, rough numbers and when you’d like the food.
You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
Timings are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
We cook to order on the day and serve right on cue.
We pack up when service is finished, leaving the pitch tidy.

Pricing in Surrey

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

Near you in Guildford

We park up for events around Surrey Maths School, Sandfield Primary School and Guildford High School, among other places. You will also find Church of St John the Evangelist (within half a mile east), Stoke Park (within half a mile east) and The King's Head pub (under half a mile south-east). Guildford’s nearest station is London Road (Guildford) station, roughly 0.6 miles south-east of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Guildford Castle (0.9 miles south) and Guildford House (0.8 miles south). Within reach you’ll find Silent Pool and Pewley Hill.

Planning wedding fish and chips in Surrey

Weddings across Surrey range from town venues in Guildford, Woking and Camberley to barns, marquees and gardens in 276 villages and hamlets. A chip van suits the outdoor and rustic end especially well. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within easy reach of places across Surrey, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles.

Guildford: If you’re marrying at a church near Guildford, such as Church of St John the Evangelist, and holding the reception nearby, the van can serve evening food there. It’s worth telling train travellers that London Road (Guildford) station, about 0.6 miles south-east, is the nearest station. At a December wedding in Guildford, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.

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.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Is a fish and chip van right for you?

Compared with a cold evening buffet, a chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer, and nothing has been out for hours.

The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

What the van needs

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:

Room in front of the hatch for a queue
A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
Flat, firm ground for the van

Prices and what affects them

We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

The day of the week
How long we serve
Access and parking
How far we travel

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

What we need to know

The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:

Your date and serving time
Dietary needs, with numbers
The address or venue name
The spot you have in mind for the van

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Surrey questions

What food do you serve?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

Do you have a kids’ option?

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

How long does set-up take?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

Is there a non-fish option?

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.

Is grass a problem?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
