Fresh fish and chips in South Harewood
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
How our wedding fish and chip van works in South Harewood
Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most book it for the evening, when it is most welcome. For evening wedding food and engagement parties, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
There’s something special about a country wedding near South Harewood, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it’s pork only. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Fried fresh, not kept warm

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.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
