The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips

Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your Christmas party in Shefford Woodlands. At about 4:00pm in late December, it gets dark in Shefford Woodlands, so put the van where there is good light.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
