At midsummer, sunset in Woodside is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

The closest is Ascot station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can the van come for the evening?
Of course. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you park on the road outside?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
