Ewhurst Green: your questions answered
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you come?
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. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Will the van be in our photos?
It normally ends up in a few photos. Bunting or lights make it even better.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
Not every guest eats in the evening. Tell us your numbers and timings, and we will advise.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
