Wedding fish and chip van in North Crawley

Common questions in North Crawley

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Firmin?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.

How far is North Crawley from London?

Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London.

Can the van come to North Crawley?

Yes, we do. North Crawley is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

How soon do we need to book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

Do you do evening food for weddings?

Evening food is exactly what we do. We will agree a serving time around your running order.

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’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

What does it cost to hire the van?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.

Wedding fish and chip van in North Crawley, cooked to order

Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most use it for evening food, when it’s most welcome. Typical bookings include engagement parties and second-day and after-party food, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.

A wedding in a small place like North Crawley often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

What affects the price in North Crawley

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The number of meals
  • Your choice of menu
  • Any minimum charge

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Details that help

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The date and time of the event
  • Dietary needs, with numbers

Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability right away.

A closer look at the menu

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Don’t forget your suppliers
  • Have bins ready for paper and trays
  • Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple

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

Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

For event organisers in North Crawley

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

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.

What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Golden-hour photos in North Crawley at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
  4. We set up during the reception and start frying at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot and leave you to the party.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Make sure the van can get in
