Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
How the day works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Late September evenings in Enfield Island Village lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:50pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
