Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
About our wedding fish and chip van in Broxhill
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for marquee and garden weddings and barn and farm weddings.
Near Broxhill, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

How it works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Evening food at a Broxhill wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

- Flag coeliac guests early
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early

Evening food usually goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done and before the party really gets going.

Questions from Broxhill
Do you come out to small places like Broxhill?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St James: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What time will you serve?
At the time you choose. After the first dance is the most popular time.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A second sit-down meal in the evening is expensive and formal. A van keeps it relaxed. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The minimum booking
- Your choice of menu
- Access and parking
- How far we travel
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
