Wedding fish and chip van in Felbridge

Step by step

We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Evening food at a Felbridge wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Felbridge

Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. Whether it’s second-day and after-party food and seaside-themed weddings, we can cook mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips and more.

Rural weddings around Felbridge 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. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Felbridge questions

What’s the nearest station to Felbridge?

East Grinstead station, about 1.6 miles south-east of the centre.

Do you come out to small places like Felbridge?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can the van come for the evening?

Evening food is exactly what we do. We will agree a serving time around your running order.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Do you take everything away?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets
  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Ensure we have someone to call on the day

It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Some venue evening menus are light. Fish and chips fills people up. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

  • Bookings across West Sussex, including Felbridge

Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
