Wedding fish and chip van for Farley Wood events
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Wedding fish and chip van in Farley Wood, cooked to order
We park close to the reception, and guests wander out to the hatch. It turns evening food into part of the celebration. We’re frequently asked to cater wedding after-parties and engagement celebrations, serving curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
For a smaller place like Farley Wood, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Farley Wood
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mark?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Farley Wood?
Bracknell station, about 1.3 miles east of the centre.
How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in Farley Wood?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The number of meals
- Service time
- Whether a minimum applies
- 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 we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where the van would park
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

- Food after the first dance

Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.
