- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A cold buffet in December isn’t much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
