Choosing a fish and chip van

How our wedding fish and chip van works in Tutts Clump

The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests drift out to queue and chat. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. Popular choices include cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are often booked for rustic farm weddings and weddings in a marquee or garden.

Near Tutts Clump, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

The menu, dish by dish

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

FAQs for Tutts Clump

Do you come to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

What’s the nearest station to Tutts Clump?

The closest is Aldermaston station, roughly 2.5 miles away.

Who clears up?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.

Is grass a problem?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

What a fish and chip van costs

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The day of the week
  • The number of meals
  • The minimum booking

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Where the event is
  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can use our quote form.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. At midsummer, sunset in Tutts Clump is about 9:25pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Have a level parking spot ready

Looking after everyone

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets
  • Put bins near the van
  • Include the band, photographer and venue staff

Evening food typically goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.

Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
