Wedding fish and chip van for Wendover events
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Wendover
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there is normally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. We’re often asked to cater wedding after-parties and pre-wedding get-togethers, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
For a smaller place like Wendover, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need level, firm ground and a way in. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Step by step
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. For a summer wedding in Wendover, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

FAQs for Wendover
We’re gathering after a service at Parish Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Wendover?
Wendover station, in Wendover itself.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Of course. Evening food is the most common wedding booking for a fish and chip van. Tell us your date and venue.
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 happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can the van park by the marquee?
That is up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A picture of the area helps.
Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we’re ready at the agreed time.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Wendover?
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it is pork only. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why book with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
