Wedding fish and chip van in Rodmersham, fried fresh
A fish and chip van is one of the most popular choices for evening wedding food. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and hot fish and chips hits the spot. Popular choices include haddock and chips, curry sauce and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for second-day and after-party food and engagement parties.
A wedding in a small place like Rodmersham often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Let us know about access and ground. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
