About our wedding fish and chip van in Woburn Sands

Some couples book the van for the wedding breakfast at a relaxed, informal wedding. Most book it for the evening, when it really comes into its own. For seaside-themed weddings and second-day and after-party food, we can cook sausage and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas.

In Woburn Sands, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. We park close by for evening food. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A second sit-down meal in the evening is expensive and formal. A van keeps it relaxed. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wedding.

Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
