Wedding fish and chip van for Spurlands End events

Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Spurlands End

Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Hot food fried to order looks after both. Typical bookings include pre-wedding get-togethers and food after the first dance, serving curry sauce, cod and chips and mushy peas.

A wedding in a small place like Spurlands End frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Perfect for your wedding in Spurlands End

Couples choose a fish and chip van because it is relaxed and fun. Guests queue, chat and come back smiling.

These are some of the bookings we take:

  • Wedding after-parties
  • Weddings with a seaside feel
  • Engagement celebrations

Marrying at Church of the Good Shepherd? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening.

How to compare vans

The process

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. For a summer wedding in Spurlands End, the sun sets at about 9:25pm 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. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Preparing for the day

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Clear the route for the van

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The date and time of year
  • Your choice of menu

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

Details that help

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Where the van would park
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Your date and serving time
  • The address or venue name

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early

It’s kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

Organising for someone else?

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
