  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • A short walk from the party
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark

About our wedding fish and chip van in Tickleback Row

The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. The queue becomes a place to catch up. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater evening wedding food and rustic farm weddings.

There is something special about a country wedding near Tickleback Row, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan access and a back-up spot in case of rain. Everything is fried fresh at your wedding, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

How to compare vans

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Do you come out to small places like Tickleback Row?

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.

Is there a non-fish option?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

Can you park near the barn?

Normally, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will agree the spot in advance.

Do you come to Tickleback Row?

Yes, we do. Tickleback Row is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Parking and the way in

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.

Getting an accurate quote

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Roughly how many people, including children

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Mushy peas

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

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

How it works

You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your wedding. The frying and serving are down to us. At a December wedding in Tickleback Row, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

  1. First, tell us about your wedding.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Ask for a quote
