Wedding fish and chip van in Loxhill, cooked to order
Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and hot fish and chips hits the spot. We’re frequently asked to cater barn and farm weddings and seaside-themed weddings, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and sausage and chips.
Rural weddings around Loxhill have a magic of their own, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your wedding, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
