Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Plan bins by the hatch
Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn if you have a lot of guests.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
How it works
We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. For a summer wedding in Saint Hill Green, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening fish and chips is frequently served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
