How it works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For an end-of-day event in Caversham Park Village, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it is about 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
