Common questions in Bagshot
What’s the nearest station to Bagshot?
The closest is Bedwyn station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
How far is Bagshot from London?
About 63 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How early do Christmas dates go?
Ideally in the summer or early autumn.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
