The process
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. At a December wedding in Kingsfold, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is one dish, and some guests don’t eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
