How our wedding fish and chip van works in Dane Hill
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s usually somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. For anniversary celebrations and evening food for day and evening guests, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Rural weddings around Dane Hill have a magic of their own, 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: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Dane Hill: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Dane Hill?
Heyford station, about 3 miles south of the centre.
Is Dane Hill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your wedding and we’ll send a quote.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of meals
- The menu and how many choices
- How easy the site is to reach
- Service time
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.

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of the parking spot
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
To get a price, fill in our quote form. Tell us about your wedding in Dane Hill, and we will check the date and send a price.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we are ready at the agreed time.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A short walk from the party
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
