A chip van near Woolstone
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Woolstone
A chip van is at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings, because there is generally somewhere firm for the van to park nearby. We are often asked to cater relaxed, informal receptions and wedding after-parties, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
Weddings in a place like Woolstone frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. We park close by for evening food. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Woolstone
Can the van park in Campbell Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Woolstone from London?
About 46 miles from central London.
Where will the van go at our venue?
That is up to your venue, but close to the party is best. A picture of the area helps.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
For evening food with a bit of fun, a fish and chip van is a great choice. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Why book our van in Woolstone
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Classic food your guests already know
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, after the first dance.
Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
