How care home fish and chips works in Surrey

Monthly or seasonal visits become a highlight in the calendar. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for friday fish and chip treats and residents’ family gatherings.

You don’t need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your care home visit. We handle the cooking and serving.

It starts with your date, numbers and mealtime.
We check where the van can park and send a quote.
Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
On the day we set up and fry fresh, serving at the agreed time.
We clear up and leave the car park as we found it.

Cost

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Why book our van

No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
Something for residents to gather round
Fish and chips fried fresh on site
Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

Care settings across Surrey

From Guildford, Woking and Camberley to 276 villages and hamlets, Surrey has care homes of every size. At every home, we park clear of ambulance access. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within easy reach of places across Surrey, where some venues have extra rules about vehicles.

Guildford: Visitors arriving by train should know that London Road (Guildford) station, about 0.6 miles south-east, is the nearest station. If your residents have links with Church of St John the Evangelist, a fête or open day together is a nice moment for a van visit. December visits in Guildford are best at lunchtime, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Surrey? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

What the van needs

Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

Not right beside residents’ rooms
A lit spot for evening service
A level parking spot near the entrance

About the food

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Surrey

Are visitors included?

Of course. Add them to your numbers.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.

Do you offer repeat visits?

Tell us how frequently you’d like a visit.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.

Can portions be smaller?

We will agree portion sizes with your kitchen or care team.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
