Questions from Mop End
Which station is closest to Mop End?
Amersham station, about 2.6 miles east of the centre.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Do you cover Mop End?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Mop End and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.

- Numbers
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the parking spot
- Rough numbers for adults and children
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.
