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

About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the van come to Leigh Green?
We do. Leigh Green is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Food early on is usually wise. For lunchtime, we’ll work to your break.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we’ll send a quote.

What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. In December, it is dark in Leigh Green by about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
