About our wedding fish and chip van in Langney

Timings are planned with you and the venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. Typical bookings include wedding after-parties and evening food for day and evening guests, serving haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce.

Weddings in a place like Langney 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. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your wedding, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Step by step

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Evening food at a Langney wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:15pm at midsummer, 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Questions from Langney

How far is Langney from London?

About 51 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you serve near the sea around Langney?

Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, including East Sussex. Find your area.

Is there something for children?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.

When should evening food go out?

Whenever suits your day. After the first dance is the most popular time.

Can you park on the road outside?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.

What do we need to supply?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Planning for dietary needs

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

Talk to us about evening numbers
Flag coeliac guests early
Have a back-up for guests with special diets
Include the band, photographer and venue staff

Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

How to compare vans

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
