Fresh fish and chips in Fawler

Wedding fish and chip van in Fawler, fried fresh

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 anniversary celebrations and evening food for day and evening guests, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips and more.

A wedding in a small place like Fawler frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

What affects the price in Fawler

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How many people are eating
  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.

What we need to know

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Where the van would park
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Anything awkward about the way in

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Make sure we have someone to call on the day
  • Confirm the van can park at the venue
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so the fryers are hot when you are ready.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Not every guest eats in the evening. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we will advise.

How to compare vans

How the day works

Here’s how the day generally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. In Fawler, midsummer sunset is about 9:30pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, which means evening fish and chips is frequently served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
