About our wedding fish and chip van in Westcroft
Barn, marquee and garden weddings suit a chip van perfectly, because there is generally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. Popular choices include haddock and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for weddings in a marquee or garden and informal weddings.
Weddings in a place like Westcroft often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The van parks on a firm spot nearby for the evening. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Where the van can park in Westcroft
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Westcroft? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Your venue coordinator or a nominated friend can let us know if things run late, so the food is still fresh.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
