Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Wallcrouch

Evening wedding food from a fish and chip van is a favourite. By nine o’clock, guests are hungry again, and hot fish and chips hits the spot. Whether it’s engagement parties and informal weddings, we will put together a menu of mushy peas, sausage and chips and curry sauce.

There is something special about a country wedding near Wallcrouch, and evening fish and chips adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Questions from Wallcrouch

Is Wallcrouch close to London?

About 37 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Is Wallcrouch too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

What do we need to supply?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

Where can the van park?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.

Do you have allergen information?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Where will the van go at our venue?

Your venue decides, but near the reception works best. A picture of the area helps.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

How it works

You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Winter weddings in Wallcrouch are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Give us a contact for the day

For event organisers in Wallcrouch

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

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, and guests eat where they like. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Why us?

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • A clear quote before booking
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • No kitchen needed

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Have bins ready for paper and trays
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
  • Confirm the van can park at the venue

Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.

A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

What a fish and chip van costs

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The day of the week
  • Numbers
  • Access and parking
  • Your choice of menu

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.

What to tell us

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.

About the food

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
