Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Cuddington
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for engagement parties and day-after gatherings.
There is something special about a country wedding near Cuddington, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Cuddington questions
Can you serve after a service at Parish Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How far is Cuddington from London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How many portions do we need?
Not every guest eats in the evening. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we’ll advise.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Frequently, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Usually, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will check access with you and the venue.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A fish and chip van or other catering?

Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
