Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

Berinsfield questions
How far is Berinsfield from London?
About 48 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at Saint Mary and Saint Berin: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes, that is what most couples book us for. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
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.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
Generally most, not all. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we’ll advise.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Working with your venue
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Access and parking
- The length of service
- Any minimum charge
- Your choice of menu
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
