Care settings across Wokingham

Care homes across Wokingham range from large homes in Reading, Woodley and Earley to smaller homes in its villages. At every home, we park clear of ambulance access.

Reading: If your residents have links with All Nations Christian Centre, a fête or open day together is a nice moment for a van visit. Visitors arriving by train should know that Reading West station is about 0.7 miles away. Sunset in Reading is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.

What the van needs

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • Access the van can manage
  • A level parking spot near the entrance
  • Away from bedroom windows

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Your kitchen could cook it, but a van turns it into an occasion.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the price includes, item by item
  • If the price includes VAT
  • When final numbers are due
  • How long service runs, and what happens if you overrun

Takeaway run or book a van?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Diets, allergies and planning

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Check the spot with your manager
  • Share residents’ diets and allergies with us
  • Involve the kitchen and care team early
  • Count families who are joining in

Afterwards we pack up quietly.

Make it a regular event.

FAQs for Wokingham

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

Do you need power or water?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.

How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Wokingham?

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
