Wedding fish and chip van in Newport Pagnell

Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Newport Pagnell

Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. We serve curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are often booked for evening wedding food and coastal-themed receptions.

In a town like Newport Pagnell, a church ceremony and a marquee or hall reception is a classic combination. That is ideal for evening fish and chips: the van parks beside the marquee or in the hall car park. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.

About the food

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Step by step

The first sign we’ve arrived is typically the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Winter weddings in Newport Pagnell are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Before we arrive

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Clear the route for the van
