How our wedding fish and chip van works in Cowley
Evening guests may have come straight from work, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. Typical bookings include food after the first dance and laid-back receptions, with curry sauce, mushy peas and cod and chips.
Couples in Cowley frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need off-road parking near the reception. Plan this early with your venue. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance and before the party really gets going.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
