Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Ewshot
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. For food after the first dance and vow renewal parties, we can cook mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips for your guests.
Rural weddings around Ewshot have a magic of their own, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.
How it works
From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your wedding. In Ewshot, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
