About our wedding fish and chip van in Micklefield
Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. Hours after the wedding breakfast, guests are ready to eat again, and fish and chips from the hatch is exactly what they want. We’re often asked to cater marquee and garden weddings and laid-back receptions, with sausage and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.
In Micklefield, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. The van parks on a firm spot nearby for the evening. Let us know about access for the van. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Common questions in Micklefield
We’re gathering after a service at St Andrew's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Will guests take photos at the van?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.

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.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
