Newbridge: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at Church of St. Michael the Archangel: 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. Tell us where you will gather.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Newbridge.
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.
Step by step

- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance and any road charges
- The length of service
- Your choice of menu
- The day of the week
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Flag coeliac guests early
After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
