Wedding fish and chip van in Eastergate, cooked to order
We park close to the reception, and guests wander out to the hatch. It turns evening food into part of the celebration. For marquee and garden weddings and vow renewals and anniversaries, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like Eastergate often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Golden-hour photos in Eastergate at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- First, tell us about your wedding.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
Ask for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

For event organisers in Eastergate
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
