How our wedding fish and chip van works in Brighthampton
Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. We’re frequently asked to cater wedding after-parties and engagement celebrations, with haddock and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.
Near Brighthampton, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.
