About our wedding fish and chip van in Durley Street
Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. On the menu are sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for barn weddings and evening food for day and evening guests.
A wedding in a small place like Durley Street often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

- Plan bins by the hatch
Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A spot near your guests
- Lighting nearby for evening events
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
