Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Combe

Evening guests may have come straight from work, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. For anniversary celebrations and evening wedding food, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce for your guests.

Near Combe, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Access and parking
  • The day of the week
  • How long we serve
  • Your choice of menu

Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

What to tell us

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Expected numbers
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Anything awkward about the way in

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

The process

The first sign we have arrived is normally the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Winter weddings in Combe are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:30pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

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

We’re gathering after a service at St Laurence's Church: can you come?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Is Combe too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you take everything away?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. Find your area.

Can the van park by the marquee?

Typically, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will check access with you and the venue.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

What do we need to supply?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

Perfect for your wedding in Combe

People get hungry again by the evening, and fish and chips is a crowd-pleaser. It is a fun moment too.
