Fresh fish and chips in Jevington
How our wedding fish and chip van works in Jevington
A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there is generally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. We’re frequently asked to cater vow renewals and anniversaries and pre-wedding get-togethers, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
A wedding in a small place like Jevington often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Do not forget your suppliers
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple
It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it is a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
How the day works
The first sign we have arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. For a summer wedding in Jevington, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, 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.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Space, access and the venue
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 level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A spot near your guests
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
On the menu in Jevington

For event organisers in Jevington

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
