FAQs for Coldmoorholme
Do you come out to small places like Coldmoorholme?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Coldmoorholme?
Bourne End station, about 0.6 miles south-east of the centre.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
Hiring a hall and a caterer adds up. A van on the drive keeps it simple. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
