Lower Eashing: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Lower Eashing?
The closest is Godalming station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Is Lower Eashing too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Lower Eashing.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
Schedules move, and we plan for it. Keep us updated and we will adapt.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac crew when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. On a winter shoot near Lower Eashing, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Name one person we can call on the day
