The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

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 usually simpler.

Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?

Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. In Ufton Nervet, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, which means evening fish and chips is frequently served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
