Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
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.
Questions from Whitchurch
Can you serve after a service at Church of St John?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Whitchurch?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes, that is what most couples book us for. We’ll fit around your first dance and band.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.

Mushy peas
