About the food
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

Put bins and napkins near the hatch.
A few lights around the van look great.
