Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Peper Harow
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. Whether it is evening wedding food and second-day and after-party food, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
Rural weddings around Peper Harow 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 keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Evening fish and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Cod and chips
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
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 typically simpler.
How it works
On the day, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. Evening food at a Peper Harow wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

What about guests who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Do you bring everything you need?

What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
- Count suppliers working late
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
