A chip van near Ebernoe
How the day works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. In Ebernoe, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

About our wedding fish and chip van in Ebernoe
Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. We serve cod and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater evening wedding food and marquee and garden weddings.
Near Ebernoe, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
