Food your guests will love

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.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Space, access and the venue

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

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

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The length of service
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The minimum booking
  • Numbers

The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Details that help

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.

The process

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your guests can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. At a December wedding in Steven's Crouch, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
  4. We cook to order on the day and serve right on cue.
  5. We pack up when service is finished, leaving the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Give us a contact for the day

15 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Steven's Crouch

Which station is closest to Steven's Crouch?

The closest is Battle station, roughly 2.3 miles away.

Is Steven's Crouch too small for a chip van?

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

How many portions do we need?

Not every guest eats in the evening. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we will advise.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

What does the van need?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Steven's Crouch?

Bacon rolls and pizza are popular evening choices too. A chip van gives a more filling, proper meal that guests remember. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.

Why book with us

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch

See our prices page or the cost guide.

Diets, allergies and planning

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

  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Give us a contact for the day who is not the couple
  • Ask your venue about catering vans first

If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later, so the food is still fresh.

A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
