About our wedding fish and chip van in Meadle

We park close to the reception, and guests drift out to queue and chat. It turns evening food into part of the celebration. We are frequently asked to cater laid-back receptions and vow renewals and anniversaries, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips.

There is something special about a country wedding near Meadle, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

How to compare vans

What a fish and chip van costs

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • How far we travel
  • Parking and the way in
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • The venue or postcode
  • Expected numbers

Send us the date, the address or HP17 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just use our quote form.

A closer look at the menu

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Common questions in Meadle

Is Meadle close to London?

About 36 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

What food do you serve?

Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Do you come to Meadle?

We do. Meadle is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Is the food cooked at the event?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

Can you park on the road outside?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Where do you take the van?

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

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

If you want evening food guests will talk about, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.

Why us?

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Classic food your guests already know
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • Bookings across Buckinghamshire, including Meadle

How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. Golden-hour photos in Meadle at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Looking after everyone

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Do not forget your suppliers
  • Talk to us about evening numbers

It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

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
