The menu, dish by dish
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.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
About our wedding fish and chip van in Maiden's Green
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. We’re often asked to cater weddings with a seaside feel and vow renewal parties, serving curry sauce, cod and chips and mushy peas.
There is something special about a country wedding near Maiden's Green, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- How many people are eating
- Service time
- The minimum booking
- Access and parking
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The address or venue name
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Planning the van’s spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

What happens on the day
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. In Maiden's Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
