How our wedding fish and chip van works in Batt's Corner
It’s relaxed and a little bit fun: guests in their wedding best queuing for fish and chips makes for great photos. Whether it’s weddings with a seaside feel and wedding after-parties, we can cook cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Near Batt's Corner, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.
Step by step
We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. In Batt's Corner, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve after a service at The Church Of The Good Shepherd?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.

How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
Will the van be in our photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If you’d rather not, we’ll park out of shot where possible.

Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
A chip van compared with other options
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
