Wedding fish and chip van in Stokenchurch, cooked to order
The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. The queue becomes a place to catch up. We serve curry sauce, cod and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re frequently booked for barn weddings and laid-back receptions.
For a smaller place like Stokenchurch, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need a firm spot and access. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Questions from Stokenchurch
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve after a service at Stokenchurch Methodist Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Your venue decides, but near the reception works best. A photo of the area helps.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.

Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Evening fish and chips
- Curry sauce
How it works
From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. For a summer wedding in Stokenchurch, 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. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Share the timings for the day

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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 generally the easier option.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The menu and how many choices
- Parking and the way in
- How many people are eating
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- Rough numbers for adults and children
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Put bins near the van
Evening food typically goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done and before the party really gets going.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
