Wedding fish and chip van for New Pound events
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it is pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Wedding fish and chip van in New Pound, cooked to order
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s usually somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. For barn and farm weddings and engagement parties, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like New Pound frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
FAQs for New Pound

Wateringbury station, about 2.8 miles south-east of the centre.

Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you serve children?

Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Of course. It is our most popular wedding booking. Send us your date and venue.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What affects the price in New Pound
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Service time
- The day of the week
- How far we travel
- Numbers
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can use our quote form.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
