Wedding fish and chip van in West End Green, fried fresh

Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips after a long day. We are often asked to cater engagement celebrations and weddings in a marquee or garden, with mushy peas, curry sauce and haddock and chips.

Near West End Green, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Let us know about access and ground. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a cold buffet, fish and chips is hot and fresh, and nothing sits out drying up. Larger groups normally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What you get with us

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Bookings across West Berkshire, including West End Green
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking

Read our pricing and the cost guide.

What a fish and chip van costs

There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • The number of meals
  • Access and parking
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The length of service

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and time of the event
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Not sure of numbers yet? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your wedding, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.

Looking after everyone

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Confirm the van can park at the venue

Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn if you have a lot of guests.

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.

How it works

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your wedding. In West End Green, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Give us a contact for the day

How to get a price

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Planning help

Should I sort the food myself?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
