A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance and before the party really gets going.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Street End
What’s the nearest station to Street End?
The closest is Chichester station, roughly 3.2 miles away.
Can you serve after a service at St Mary Our Lady Sidlesham?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Send us your date and venue.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
- 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
