Fresh fish and chips in Danesfield
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.
How our wedding fish and chip van works in Danesfield
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. Typical bookings include seaside-themed weddings and food after the first dance, serving sausage and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
Rural weddings around Danesfield 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 plan the timings around your day, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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 usually the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The day of the week
- Distance and any road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
- Whether a minimum applies

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Danesfield
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Many couples cater for most of the evening list.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can the van park by the marquee?
That’s up to your venue, but near the reception works best. Send us a picture of the spot.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. Find your area.
