- 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.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you. The main points are:

- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
