About our wedding fish and chip van in Milton

A wedding in a small place like Milton often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party.

Milton: your questions answered
Do you come to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Milton?
The closest is Appleford station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can the van be part of the photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.
Can the van park by the marquee?
Usually, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will agree the spot in advance.
Step by step
Here’s how the day typically runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. Evening food at a Milton wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

- We check the venue and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Diets, allergies and planning
