How to compare vans

What happens on the day

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day. Winter weddings in Caversfield are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.

  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. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Caversfield

How far is Caversfield from London?

About 54 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Is Caversfield too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can the van come for the evening?

Evening food is exactly what we do. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.

What can guests choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Caversfield.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Do we need to provide equipment?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
