About our wedding fish and chip van in Holmer Green

We agree timings with you and your venue, so the food fits your running order. Whether it’s barn and farm weddings and vow renewals and anniversaries, we can cook curry sauce, mushy peas and cod and chips for your guests.

A farm or garden wedding near Holmer Green suits a chip van. We need a firm spot and access. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Planning the van’s spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

On the menu in Holmer Green

  • Evening fish and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Curry sauce

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets

We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.

Organising for someone else?

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

How the day works

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 Holmer Green, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

How to prepare

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Common questions in Holmer Green

What’s the nearest station to Holmer Green?

The closest is Great Missenden station, roughly 2.7 miles away.

Is Holmer Green close to London?

About 28 miles from central London, and well within our area.

How many portions do we need?

That depends on your day. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

Can you do our evening wedding food?

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

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.

Takeaway run or book a van?

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.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Prices and what affects them

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The date and time of year
  • Your choice of menu
  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Expected numbers
  • Anything awkward about the way in

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.
