Wedding fish and chip van in Langley
Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Langley
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. Typical bookings include barn and farm weddings and engagement celebrations, with mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips.
Weddings in a place like Langley frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The van parks on a firm spot nearby for the evening. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we serve
- Evening fish and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Curry sauce
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. In Langley, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Langley
Can you serve after a service at St Mary the Virgin Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Which station is closest to Langley?
The closest is Langley station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What time will you serve?
Whenever suits your day. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Count suppliers working late
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
