How our wedding fish and chip van works in Naphill

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. 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.
Questions from Naphill
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Botolph?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Naphill?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Will guests take photos at the van?
It normally ends up in a few photos. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
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.

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave you to the party.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Golden-hour photos in Naphill at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the van can get in
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan where the queue will stand
