Wedding fish and chip van in Broughton Crossing

About our wedding fish and chip van in Broughton Crossing

At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. We’re frequently asked to cater evening wedding food and anniversary celebrations, serving sausage and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

There is something special about a country wedding near Broughton Crossing, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Planning for dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
  • Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early

Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn if you have a lot of guests.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.

Our booking checklist

How the day works

We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. In Broughton Crossing, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Share the timings for the day

Planning help

Takeaway run or book a van?

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.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

For planners, venues and organisers

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.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Broughton Crossing? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
