Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Green Hailey
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. On the menu are haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for garden and marquee receptions and coastal-themed receptions.
A wedding in a small place like Green Hailey frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day
You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. At a December wedding in Green Hailey, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- We start with a few details about your wedding.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Have a level parking spot ready

Green Hailey questions
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Dunstan: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you cover Green Hailey?
Yes, we do. Green Hailey is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later, so the food is still fresh.
Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- The minimum booking
- The menu and how many choices
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The address or venue name
- Where the van would park
- The date and when you’d like to eat
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
