About our wedding fish and chip van in Egham
At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most use it for evening food, when it’s most welcome. Whether it’s informal weddings and barn and farm weddings, we can cook sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas and more.
In a town like Egham, a church ceremony and a marquee or hall reception is a classic combination. That suits a chip van perfectly: we park close to the reception. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Egham
Can you serve after a service at St John's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Egham close to London?
Roughly 20 miles from the centre of London.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Will the van be in our photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Lighting nearby for evening events

- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Allergies and dietary needs

- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
