We agree timings with you and your venue, so the food fits your running order. We serve sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we are often booked for coastal-themed receptions and informal weddings.
A wedding in a small place like Lee Gate often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Put bins near the van
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order.

Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips
- Evening fish and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your wedding. We handle the cooking and serving. At a December wedding in Lee Gate, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Give us a contact for the day
- Clear the route for the van

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
