Wedding fish and chip van in Whaddon, cooked to order
Once the fryers are on, guests find the van on their own. The queue becomes a place to catch up. Whether it is weddings in a marquee or garden and seaside-themed weddings, we can cook sausage and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas for your guests.
Near Whaddon, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Common questions in Whaddon
How far is Whaddon from London?
About 46 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Whaddon?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What time will you serve?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance. We will fit your running order.
Can the van come for the evening?
Yes. It is our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
That depends on your day. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it’s pork only. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Takeaway run or book a 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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. At a December wedding in Whaddon, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We agree arrival and serving times with you and your venue.
- On the day we set up in good time and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly once everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
