About our wedding fish and chip van in Bolter End
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Hot food fried to order looks after both. We’re frequently asked to cater barn weddings and vow renewal parties, serving haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce.
Rural weddings around Bolter End have a magic of their own, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Any minimum charge
- The length of service
- How easy the site is to reach
- Numbers
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where the event is
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The date and time of the event
Send us the date, the address or HP14 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

FAQs for Bolter End
What’s the nearest station to Bolter End?
Saunderton station, about 3.6 miles north of the centre.
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
What time will you serve?
At the time you choose. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
Normally most, not all. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a cold evening buffet, a chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer, and nothing has been out for hours. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
