Step by step

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your wedding. In Hollingrove, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, 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. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. What matters most:

  • A spot near your guests
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Access wide and high enough for the van

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
