Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Slade Green
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there is typically somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. On the menu are haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for rustic farm weddings and weddings in a marquee or garden.
London weddings around Slade Green often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a courtyard or a family home. We need off-road parking near the reception. In London, check vehicle access with the venue early. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your wedding, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
