Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Wedding fish and chip van in Paley Street, fried fresh
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there’s usually somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. Whether it’s garden and marquee receptions and relaxed, informal receptions, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips and more.
Rural weddings around Paley Street have a magic of their own, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Count suppliers working late
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
After service, we pack up quietly and leave you to the party.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
Paley Street: your questions answered
Could you trade in Ockwells Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Paley Street?
The closest is Maidenhead station, roughly 2.9 miles away.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
Will the van be in our photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How many portions do we need?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests, not all.
Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
On the menu in Paley Street

Why choose a fish and chip van in Paley Street?
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
