No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Hurley?

How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What time will you serve?

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

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Hurley
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. Whether it’s vow renewals and anniversaries and coastal-themed receptions, we can cook haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
Near Hurley, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Don’t forget your suppliers
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance and before the party really gets going.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

The process
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. In Hurley, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
