Wedding fish and chip van in Middlegreen, fried fresh
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so the food fits your running order. We are frequently asked to cater relaxed, informal receptions and coastal-themed receptions, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Near Middlegreen, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Timings are planned around your wedding, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Count suppliers working late
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

What else we do in Middlegreen
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Questions from Middlegreen
Is Middlegreen too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve after a service at St Mary the Virgin Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can the van be part of the photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If you’d rather not, we will park out of shot where possible.
What time is best for the van?
Whenever suits your day. After the first dance is the most popular time.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Slough. Find your area.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Your venue decides, but close to the party is best. A photo of the area helps.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

How the day works
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your wedding. We handle the cooking and serving. At a December wedding in Middlegreen, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Give us a contact for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
Getting a price
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.
