Looking after everyone

It’s worth telling the neighbours, or invite them.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How easy the site is to reach
- Any minimum charge
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

FAQs for Rose Hill
What’s the nearest station to Rose Hill?
The closest is Taplow station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you park at our house?
Normally, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
How far ahead should we book a party?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
