Couples love the relaxed feel: guests in their wedding best queuing for fish and chips makes for memorable photos. For vow renewals and anniversaries and marquee and garden weddings, we can cook curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips and more.
A wedding in a small place like Cranbourne often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Common questions in Cranbourne
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Cranbourne?
The closest is Ascot station, roughly 3 miles away.
Do you cover Cranbourne?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Cranbourne is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
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.
When should evening food go out?
At the time you choose. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The date and time of year
- Whether a minimum applies
- Your choice of menu
- The number of meals
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The date and time of the event
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A photo of the parking spot

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Step by step
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests normally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. At a December wedding in Cranbourne, it’s 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
Getting a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
