Wedding fish and chip van in Tyler's Green, cooked to order
The smell of fish and chips drifting across the reception does the inviting. People chat in the queue and come back with full hands. We are often asked to cater weddings with a seaside feel and rustic farm weddings, serving cod and chips, curry sauce and haddock and chips.
Rural weddings around Tyler's Green have a magic of their own, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your wedding, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short if you have plenty of guests.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether a minimum applies
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Tyler's Green
Can the van park in Bay Pond?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Tyler's Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
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 tell you what we can offer.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How many portions do we need?
That depends on your day. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests, not all.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it is one dish, and some guests don’t eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
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.
