About our wedding fish and chip van in Pound Hill
Some evening guests arrive without having eaten, while day guests last ate in the afternoon. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for relaxed, informal receptions and coastal-themed receptions.
A farm or garden wedding near Pound Hill suits a chip van. We need level, firm ground and a way in. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

What happens on the day
On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. Winter weddings in Pound Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
