Choosing a fish and chip van

Wedding fish and chip van in Chisbridge Cross, cooked to order

Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. We’re frequently asked to cater barn and farm weddings and engagement parties, serving sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.

Near Chisbridge Cross, weddings are often 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. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

About the food

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Prices and what affects them

There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • Service time
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The minimum booking
  • Access and parking

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Where the event is
  • Where the van would park
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, fill in our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

The process

Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. At a December wedding in Chisbridge Cross, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Getting a price

Send us the date, the address or SL7 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
  • Put bins near the van
  • Do not forget your suppliers
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we are ready at the agreed time.

A string of lights by the hatch makes a great photo.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
