Wedding fish and chip van in Lyneham
How our wedding fish and chip van works in Lyneham
We park close to the reception, and guests drift out to queue and chat. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. Whether it is vow renewal parties and wedding after-parties, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like Lyneham frequently 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. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Golden-hour photos in Lyneham at midsummer come around 9:30pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
Ask for a quote
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

What affects the price in Lyneham
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Your choice of menu
- The date and time of year
- The number of meals
- Whether a minimum applies
Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Expected numbers
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary needs, with numbers
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, fish and chips is hot and fresh, and nothing has been out for hours. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Why book our van in Lyneham
- All the chip-shop extras
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- A clear quote before booking
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Count suppliers working late
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Put bins near the van
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
Lyneham questions
Which station is closest to Lyneham?
Shipton station, about 1.1 miles south of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Lyneham?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can the van come for the evening?
Of course. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
