Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Garden visits in Hazlemere work best between late spring and early autumn, with sunset about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; in winter, keep it to lunchtime.

  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
