Hedgerley Green questions
Can the van park in Bulstrode Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you serve after a service at Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin?
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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you do street parties?
Frequently, yes. Start the road closure application early.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
