Wedding fish and chip van in Pizien Well, fried fresh
Timings are planned with you and the venue, so service fits around the first dance, the cake and the band. Popular choices include mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips, and we are often booked for coastal-themed receptions and barn weddings.
Near Pizien Well, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Pizien Well questions
Is Pizien Well close to London?
Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Pizien Well?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your wedding and we will send a quote.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

- Your choice of menu

What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
The process
We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For a summer wedding in Pizien Well, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, which means evening fish and chips is often served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- First, tell us about your wedding.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Give us a contact for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
