A wedding in a small place like Moreton often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Moreton
Do you come out to small places like Moreton?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Moreton?
The closest is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 3.2 miles away.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How many portions do we need?
Typically most, not all. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we will advise.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
When should evening food go out?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We will work to your timings.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
What happens on the day
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Evening food at a Moreton wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Numbers
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access and parking
- The minimum booking
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Where the event is
- A picture of the parking spot
- Expected numbers
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so we are ready at the agreed time.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
- 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
