Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Keynor Estate
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so the food fits your running order. Whether it is coastal-themed receptions and food after the first dance, we can cook curry sauce, cod and chips and mushy peas.
A wedding in a small place like Keynor Estate often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Do not forget your suppliers
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we are ready at the agreed time.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
What the van needs
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Evening fish and chips

- Mushy peas
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance and any road charges
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Parking and the way in
- Numbers

Keynor Estate questions
Do you come out to small places like Keynor Estate?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you serve near the sea around Keynor Estate?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Keynor Estate.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
