Wedding fish and chip van in Winkfield, cooked to order
The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests wander out to the hatch. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. For informal weddings and pre-wedding get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
A wedding in a small place like Winkfield frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A chip van is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Winkfield
Is Winkfield too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Winkfield close to London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can the van be part of the photos?
Frequently, yes, and it makes a fun photo. Add bunting or lights for the photos.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Winter weddings in Winkfield are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van.
- You tell us your date, venue, rough numbers and when you’d like the food.
- We check access at the venue and send a price.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- 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
- Get permission for the van from the venue

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Put bins near the van
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
We arrive during the reception and set up quietly, so the fryers are hot when you are ready.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
If you want evening food guests will talk about, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
