Whether it is second-day and after-party food and vow renewal parties, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas and more.
Rural weddings around Warminghurst have a magic of their own, and fish and chips at dusk 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 are up and running.

Warminghurst questions
Can you serve after a service at Church of the Holy Sepulchre?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We’ll agree the spot in advance.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
What can guests choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What time will you serve?
At the time you choose. Most couples go for just after the first dance.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
