Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Add an allergy question to your RSVP card

If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.

Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Blenheim

The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. The queue becomes a place to catch up. Typical bookings include second-day and after-party food and rustic farm weddings, with curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips.

A wedding in a small place like Blenheim frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Working with your venue

Organising a club, school or community event in Blenheim? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Blenheim: your questions answered

What’s the nearest station to Blenheim?

The closest is Radley station, roughly 4.3 miles away.

How far is Blenheim from London?

About 48 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you cover Blenheim?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Blenheim and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Do you have allergen information?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Where will the van go at our venue?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We’ll agree the spot in advance.

What time will you serve?

Usually between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We will fit your running order.

When do you arrive?

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

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

How the day works

The first sign we’ve arrived is typically the smell. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Golden-hour photos in Blenheim at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:10pm.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

How to get a price

Send us the date, the address or OX44 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. To get started, use our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
