Fresh fish and chips in Brownbread Street

Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Brownbread Street

At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most use it for evening food, when it’s most welcome. For day-after gatherings and coastal-themed receptions, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce for your guests.

Near Brownbread Street, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Brownbread Street questions

Could you trade in Ashburnham Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.

Which station is closest to Brownbread Street?

Battle station, about 4.9 miles east of the centre.

Which areas do you serve?

We cover London and the South East, East Sussex included. See all areas.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Does every evening guest need to eat?

That depends on your day. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.

What happens if it rains?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Can you park on the road outside?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Put bins near the van
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van

Remember the band, photographer and venue staff in your numbers.

A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

Working with your venue

Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

What the van needs

Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

From the hatch

  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips

The process

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Golden-hour photos in Brownbread Street at midsummer come around 9:15pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Why choose wedding fish and chip van in Brownbread Street?

Rain does not stop the fryers, which is reassuring for an outdoor wedding.

If you are planning any of these, we can help:

  • Weddings with a seaside feel
  • Weddings in a marquee or garden
  • Food after the first dance
  • Relaxed, informal receptions

Guests coming by rail will want to know that Battle station, about 4.9 miles east, is the nearest station.
