Questions from Ellen's Green
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Ellen's Green close to London?
Roughly 30 miles from the centre of London.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
