Tattenhoe: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at St Giles's Church?
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. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Tattenhoe?
Bletchley station, about 2.3 miles east of the centre.
Can the wake be at home?
Yes, if there’s somewhere level and firm to park the van close to the house.
What if timings change?
Of course. We serve when people are ready.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wake.
