About our wedding fish and chip van in Bunkers Hill
The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests wander out to the hatch. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. On the menu are curry sauce, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater anniversary celebrations and wedding after-parties.
Near Bunkers Hill, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Bunkers Hill: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Church of Holy Cross?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Bunkers Hill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
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.
Can the van park by the marquee?
Typically, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We’ll check access with you and the venue.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What time is best for the van?
Typically between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We will fit your running order.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

- A short walk from the party
