Wedding fish and chip van in Sibford Ferris, fried fresh
At informal weddings, the van can even serve the main meal. Most use it for evening food, when it really comes into its own. Popular choices include curry sauce, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for rustic farm weddings and anniversary celebrations.
A wedding in a small place like Sibford Ferris frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen, just firm ground nearby. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Your venue decides, but close to the party is best. Send us a picture of the spot.

Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
