Fresh fish and chips in Broughton
Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Broughton
Evening guests may have come straight from work, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for laid-back receptions and anniversary celebrations.
For a smaller place like Broughton, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need a firm spot and access. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

What else we do in Broughton
Broughton: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Broughton?
Woburn Sands station, about 2.8 miles south-east of the centre.
How far is Broughton from London?
About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Send us your date and venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Count suppliers working late
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so the fryers are hot when you are ready.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The day of the week
- The length of service
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Allergies and diets you know about
Each quote is put together for your wedding. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

How the day works
You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. For a summer wedding in Broughton, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
