Couples love the relaxed feel: dresses, suits and paper portions of chips makes for great photos. For coastal-themed receptions and barn weddings, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like Cassington frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby.
