Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

What a fish and chip van costs
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- Service time
- Cod, haddock or both
- The day of the week
- Whether a minimum applies
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where the event is
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A spot near your guests
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
For somewhere as remote as Hunny Hill, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Hunny Hill
Can the van park in Seaclose Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you serve near the sea around Hunny Hill?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
