Wedding fish and chip van for Lavendon events

Food your guests will love

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

About our wedding fish and chip van in Lavendon

Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. The queue becomes a place to catch up. For informal weddings and engagement parties, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.

Near Lavendon, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Diets, allergies and planning

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Put bins near the van
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.

Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.

Perfect for your wedding in Lavendon

Wedding venues and ceremonies near Lavendon

From the centre of Lavendon to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. Lavendon is one of 73 towns and villages in Milton Keynes where we bring the van. You can also see our page for Milton Keynes, about 10 miles away.

Pavenham Osier Beds nearby makes a lovely backdrop for photos. Marrying at Church of St Michael? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening.

Your wedding could be at a house on High Street, Rectory Orchard and Orchard Walk, wherever the van can park.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lavendon?

Compared with a cold evening buffet, fish and chips is hot and fresh, and nothing sits out drying up. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Why us?

  • A quote that spells everything out
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm

Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

What the van needs

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • A short walk from the party
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • Curry sauce
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Evening fish and chips

How it works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. In Lavendon, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

  1. We start with a few details about your wedding.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

How to prepare

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Lavendon

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Michael?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Is Lavendon close to London?

About 52 miles from central London.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Do you come to Lavendon?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Lavendon. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Will guests take photos at the van?

It usually ends up in a few photos. Bunting or lights make it even better.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Is the fish gluten-free?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
