About our wedding fish and chip van in Temple Valley
Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. Typical bookings include vow renewals and anniversaries and weddings with a seaside feel, with cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
A wedding in a small place like Temple Valley frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it is pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. 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.
