About the food

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Questions from Bury's Bank

Do you come out to small places like Bury's Bank?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Bury's Bank from London?

About 52 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Can the van park on the street?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Do you do anything other than fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Can you serve in the cold?

Not for the cooking. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.

How early do Christmas dates go?

As soon as you have a date, especially for a Friday.
