Wedding fish and chip van in Easton, fried fresh
At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most use it for evening food, when it’s most welcome. We’re frequently asked to cater pre-wedding get-togethers and rustic farm weddings, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
A wedding in a small place like Easton frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Easton
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Gregory: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What’s the nearest station to Easton?
Kintbury station, about 3.5 miles south-west of the centre.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
When should evening food go out?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We’ll work to your timings.

Planning help
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.
Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.
About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

What affects the price in Easton
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Numbers
- How easy the site is to reach
- The date and time of year
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
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. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
