North Ascot: your questions answered
How far is North Ascot from London?
About 26 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to North Ascot?
Ascot station, about 1 mile south-east of the centre.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you cover North Ascot?
We do. North Ascot is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
What if the weather’s bad?

Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
