Your questions about fish and chips for the wake in Moulsoe
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Moulsoe?
The closest is Woburn Sands station, roughly 3.5 miles away.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
What if timings change?
We plan for delays. We’ll work to your contact on the day.
Do you come to Moulsoe?
Yes, we do. Moulsoe is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Is a fish and chip van right for your wake?
A pub or venue may cater a wake themselves. A van works at home or at a hall. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
