Ashley Green: your questions answered
Is Ashley Green close to London?

What’s the nearest station to Ashley Green?
The closest is Berkhamsted station, roughly 2 miles away.
Do you do regular visits?
Yes, ask us about regular dates.
Can the van come to Ashley Green?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Ashley Green and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for residents.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
