Is there something for children?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Can everyone take part?

About the food
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
