Food your guests will love

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Before you choose a spot

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:

  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

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

What we serve

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

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What you get with us

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Bookings across Bracknell Forest, including Jealott's Hill
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • A menu almost everyone likes

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van

Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short if you have a lot of guests.

Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.

Choosing a fish and chip van

How it works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Evening food at a Jealott's Hill wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. Timings are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. We set up during the reception and start frying at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot and leave you to the party.

Before we arrive

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
