Do you take everything away?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Looking after everyone

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for

Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.

Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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.

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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges
  • How many people are eating
  • Whether a minimum applies

Larger groups normally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the van would park
