Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Mousehill
Good evening food keeps people on the dance floor, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. For vow renewal parties and pre-wedding get-togethers, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
Near Mousehill, weddings are often 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. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Mousehill questions
Is Mousehill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Surrey. Find your area.
Do you have allergen information?
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.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How the day works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your wedding. We handle the cooking and serving. In Mousehill, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the hatch help guests and photos alike.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Don’t forget your suppliers
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
