For event organisers in South Harefield

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

What comes out of the fryer

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.

How to compare vans

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in South Harefield

Do you come out to small places like South Harefield?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

What’s the nearest station to South Harefield?

The closest is Denham station, roughly 1 mile away.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Buckinghamshire included. See all areas.

Can the van come for the evening?

Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Can the van park on grass?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

What the van needs

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

What we serve

  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Evening fish and chips

How it works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. In South Harefield, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

  1. We start with a few details about your wedding.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
