Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Castle Green
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Hot food fried to order looks after both. We’re frequently asked to cater vow renewal parties and informal weddings, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Castle Green, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- The number of meals
- The day of the week
- Parking and the way in
Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the parking spot
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Put bins near the van
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
