Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
Your venue coordinator or a nominated friend can let us know if things run late.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s one dish, and some guests don’t eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It’s worth asking early.
What you get with us
- Quick service from the hatch
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- A menu almost everyone likes

Step by step
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Winter weddings in Wheeler End are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum booking
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the van would park
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Common questions in Wheeler End
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Wheeler End close to London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We’ll fit around your first dance and band.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What happens if it rains?
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.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
