A chip van near Moulsoe

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it is a favourite with children.

Wedding fish and chip van in Moulsoe, cooked to order

The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. The queue becomes a place to catch up. For evening food for day and evening guests and wedding after-parties, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips.

A wedding in a small place like Moulsoe 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. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How the day works

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. For a summer wedding in Moulsoe, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

What affects the price in Moulsoe

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • The number of meals
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The length of service
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets

It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

Some venue evening menus are light. Fish and chips fills people up. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

What you get with us

  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Rain does not stop the fryers
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Why choose wedding fish and chip van in Moulsoe?

It typically costs far less per head than the main meal, which helps the budget go further.

Here are some of the occasions we serve:

  • Wedding after-parties
  • Barn weddings
  • Marquee and garden weddings
  • Pre-wedding get-togethers

Nearby historic houses include Linford Manor (3.4 miles west). If your reception is at a historic house or estate, ask early about its rules on caterers and vehicles.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How allergens are handled
  • The deadline for final numbers
  • What the van needs: space, access, power
  • The deposit and payment dates

Choosing a fish and chip van

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

Moulsoe questions

What’s the nearest station to Moulsoe?

The closest is Woburn Sands station, roughly 3.5 miles away.

We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: 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. Send us the address.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

How many portions do we need?

That depends on your day. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests, not all.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

What do we need to supply?

Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.

What time is best for the van?

Typically between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We’ll work to your timings.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Milton Keynes included. Find your area.
