How to compare vans

Common questions in Wokefield

Is Wokefield too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Wokefield from London?

Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can the van come to Wokefield?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Wokefield is within our area. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Does every evening guest need to eat?

That depends on your day. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, including West Berkshire. Find your area.

Will guests take photos at the van?

Lots of couples ask for a picture at the van. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.

What food do you serve?

Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

What a fish and chip van costs

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • How far we travel
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The number of meals

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.

Details that help

The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • A picture of the parking spot
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The date and time of the event

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Ensure we have someone to call on the day
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Put bins near the van

Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short if you have plenty of guests.

Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
