Common questions in Bagshot
How far is Bagshot from London?
About 63 miles from central London.
Can you serve after a service at Church of the Good Shepherd?
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 typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

How far ahead should we book a party?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Bagshot.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Numbers
- Cod, haddock or both
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
