How our wedding fish and chip van works in Willen

Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Other occasions in Willen
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wedding?
Evening food can be anything from bacon rolls to pizza. A chip van gives a more filling, proper meal. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

How much does a fish and chip van for your wedding cost in Willen?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear 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 take it from there.
Will the van be in our photos?
Many couples love having it in the photos. If you’d rather not, we’ll park out of shot where possible.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
