Wedding fish and chip van for Higham Hill events
How our wedding fish and chip van works in Higham Hill
At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most use it for evening food, when it really comes into its own. Whether it is evening food for day and evening guests and relaxed, informal receptions, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
For a wedding in Higham Hill, think about where a catering van can stop. Ask your venue about a loading bay or yard, which suits a chip van well. Timings are planned around your wedding, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
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.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Count suppliers working late
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done and before the party really gets going.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
