DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. For a summer wedding in Quarrendon Estate, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening fish and chips is often served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

Common questions in Quarrendon Estate
Can you serve after a service at St Peter's?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Quarrendon Estate?
Aylesbury station, about 1.1 miles south-east of the centre.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Your venue decides, but close to the party is best. A picture of the area helps.
Do you cover Quarrendon Estate?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Quarrendon Estate is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.
