Wedding fish and chip van in Peters Village, fried fresh
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. Typical bookings include rustic farm weddings and vow renewal parties, serving sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
For a smaller place like Peters Village, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need a firm spot and access. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it is one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.
What you get with us
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- No surprises in your quote
- Classic food your guests already know
- No kitchen needed
Step by step
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. Winter weddings in Peters Village are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Peters Village: your questions answered
Can the van park in Holborough Marshes?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Peters Village?
Snodland station, about 1 mile south-west of the centre.
How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in Peters Village?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Who books wedding fish and chip van in Peters Village?
It’s food every generation enjoys, from flower girls to grandparents.

- When final numbers are due
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Flag coeliac guests early
After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
