Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Brimpton

Do you come out to small places like Brimpton?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Which station is closest to Brimpton?

Midgham station, about 1.4 miles north-east of the centre.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.

Can the van be part of the photos?

Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we’ll park out of shot where possible.

What do we need to supply?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.

How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in Brimpton?

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

The menu, dish by dish

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

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.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Ensure we have someone to call on the day
  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for

We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so the fryers are hot when you are ready.

A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.

How the day works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Golden-hour photos in Brimpton at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Clear the route for the van
