Wedding fish and chip van in Woolmer Hill, cooked to order
Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. We’re frequently asked to cater day-after gatherings and engagement parties, serving curry sauce, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
A wedding in a small place like Woolmer Hill frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a chip van shines: no kitchen needed, just a firm spot near the party. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In Woolmer Hill, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening fish and chips is frequently served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive

Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Put bins near the van
After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.
