Wedding fish and chip van in Little Marlow, fried fresh

Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s frequently a yard or track close to the party. We serve cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for barn and farm weddings and seaside-themed weddings.

A wedding in a small place like Little Marlow often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Little Marlow weddings: local tips

Little Marlow is about 2 miles north-east of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. From the centre of Little Marlow to the outskirts, the service works the same way: fresh frying, hot food from the hatch and a clear price. Little Marlow is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 14 miles away.

Guests coming by rail will want to know that the closest railway station is Bourne End station, roughly 1.4 miles east of the centre. After a ceremony at a church like Church of St John the Baptist, many couples move to a marquee or hall nearby, which is where the van comes in.

This part of Buckinghamshire takes in SL7, so your wedding can be anywhere in it. Local streets include Church Road, Pound Lane and School Lane; a wedding on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. If your venue is just outside Little Marlow, we also cover Fern (1 mile north-east), Coldmoorholme (1 mile east), Well End (1 mile east), Burroughs Grove (1 mile north-west) and Bourne End (1 mile east). Within a short drive, we also cover High Wycombe (3 miles north), Chesham (10 miles north-east), Amersham (9 miles north-east), Beaconsfield (4 miles north-east), Chalfont St Peter (8 miles east) and Princes Risborough (10 miles north).

A little further out are High Wycombe Castle (3.3 miles north) and Eden (3.2 miles north). Open spaces near Little Marlow include Taplow Lake and Warren Nature Reserve.

  • Nearby schools include Great Marlow School (1.1 miles west)
  • Local pubs include The Queen's Head pub (under half a mile south-west)

A chip van compared with other options

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

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

Little Marlow questions

What’s the nearest station to Little Marlow?

Bourne End station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.

Is Little Marlow too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What does the van need?

Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.

What happens if it rains?

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

What do you bring?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

How to compare vans

What affects the price in Little Marlow

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Service time
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The minimum booking
  • How easy the site is to reach

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What we need to know

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Your date and serving time
  • A photo of the space and the way in

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: tell us the basics about your wedding, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

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

  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Name a friend or coordinator as our contact

If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later, so the food is still fresh.

A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

  • 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
