FAQs for Micheldever
Do you come out to small places like Micheldever?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Micheldever close to London?
About 56 miles from central London.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.
What if we only have street parking?
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.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance and any road charges
