About our wedding fish and chip van in Little Barrington
Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. For rustic farm weddings and food after the first dance, we can cook mushy peas, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Little Barrington, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Little Barrington
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Little Barrington?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. See all areas.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Do you come to Little Barrington?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Little Barrington is within our area and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, use our quote form.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it’s one dish, and some guests don’t eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. 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. Your quote spells it all out.
Why Little Barrington hosts choose us
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Quick service from the hatch
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- A menu almost everyone likes
A closer look at the menu
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Put bins near the van
Evening food typically goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance and before the party really gets going.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
