How our wedding fish and chip van works in Elmbridge Village
Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. For coastal-themed receptions and laid-back receptions, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
Rural weddings around Elmbridge Village have a magic of their own, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Don’t forget your suppliers
- Talk to us about evening numbers
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we are ready at the agreed time.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
FAQs for Elmbridge Village
Do you come out to small places like Elmbridge Village?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Elmbridge Village from London?
Roughly 31 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
What time will you serve?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We’ll work to your timings.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can the van be part of the photos?
Frequently, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
Step by step

A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.
