Wedding fish and chip van across West Sussex

Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s normally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we are often booked for laid-back receptions and engagement parties.

Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

What you will pay

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Wedding settings across West Sussex

Couples in West Sussex choose everything from venues in Crawley, Horsham and Worthing to marquees in village gardens. A chip van suits the outdoor and rustic end especially well. The South Downs National Park and the High Weald National Landscape are within easy reach of places across West Sussex, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles. 121 of the places we cover in West Sussex are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about shelter for the queue, and fish and chips feels right at home.

Crawley: Tilgate Lake nearby makes a lovely backdrop for photos. For guests travelling by train, Crawley station is in Crawley itself. Winter weddings in Crawley are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.

Space, access and the venue

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

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.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.

FAQs for West Sussex

Where will the van go at our venue?

That’s up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A photo of the area helps.

Do we need to provide anything?

Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

Is there something for children?

Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.

Do you fry it on site?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.

Will the van be in our photos?

Frequently, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Bunting or lights make it even better.

Do you take everything away?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
