What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Working with your venue
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
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.
How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. At a December wedding in North Cheam, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check access at the venue and send a price.
- We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
- We cook to order on the day and serve right on cue.
