About our wedding fish and chip van in Worting
Evening guests may have come straight from work, and day guests ate hours ago. Fresh fish and chips suits everyone. We are often asked to cater weddings in a marquee or garden and seaside-themed weddings, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
A farm or garden wedding near Worting suits a chip van. We need level, firm ground and a way in. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.
Worting questions
Is Worting close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
What’s the nearest station to Worting?
Basingstoke station, about 2.1 miles east of the centre.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Hampshire. See all areas.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What affects the price in Worting
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Numbers
- Any minimum charge
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your wedding.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Give us a contact for the day who isn’t the couple
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
Evening food usually goes out between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done and before the party really gets going.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

Curry sauce

Should I sort the food myself?
