Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Little Wittenham

Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there is generally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. For rustic farm weddings and wedding after-parties, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

Near Little Wittenham, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. 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.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Little Wittenham?

Compared with a cold evening buffet, a chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer, and nothing sits out drying up. 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. We set everything out in your quote.

Why book with us

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • Events in Little Wittenham and across Oxfordshire
  • Classic food your guests already know

See our prices page or our guide to van hire costs.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • A short walk from the party
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

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

On the menu in Little Wittenham

  • Haddock and chips

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

The process

Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. Winter weddings in Little Wittenham are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
  4. We cook to order on the day and serve right on cue.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot and leave you to the party.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Let us know the serving time

Questions from Little Wittenham

Is Little Wittenham close to London?

About 48 miles from central London.

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. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your wedding and we’ll send a quote.

Do you cover Little Wittenham?

We do. We serve events in Little Wittenham and across Oxfordshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Little Wittenham.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Is there a non-fish option?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

Do you clear up afterwards?

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

Takeaway run or book a van?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

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.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Make sure we have someone to call on the day
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Plan something for guests we cannot cater for

We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we are ready at the agreed time.

Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

Prices and what affects them

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Numbers
  • The day of the week
  • How long we serve

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.

Details that help

The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • A picture of the parking spot
  • Expected numbers

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

For event organisers in Little Wittenham

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

  • 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
