A chip van near Easton
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Wedding fish and chip van in Easton, fried fresh
The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests drift out to queue and chat. It turns evening food into part of the celebration. Typical bookings include barn weddings and evening wedding food, serving cod and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.
Near Easton, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

How it works
The first sign we have arrived is usually the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Winter weddings in Easton are dark by about 4:05pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
Getting a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Put bins near the van
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
Common questions in Easton
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you come out to small places like Easton?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How many portions do we need?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you come to Easton?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Easton is within our area. For a quote, use our quote form.
Will the van be in our photos?
It typically ends up in a few photos. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Food your guests will love
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
