DIY versus a fish and chip van

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Working with your venue

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
  • Ask your venue about catering vans first

Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance.

Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. At midsummer, sunset in Newton Leys is about 9:25pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
