How our wedding fish and chip van works in Easebourne
Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. Typical bookings include barn weddings and weddings in a marquee or garden, with cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
Rural weddings around Easebourne have a magic of their own, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

Easebourne: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Easebourne close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We will agree the spot in advance.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
How it works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. At a December wedding in Easebourne, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
