Bagshot questions
Is Bagshot close to London?
Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Bagshot too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Can residents with special diets join in?
Your care team knows each resident’s needs. Share the diets and we will say what we can do; texture-modified meals should be prepared or advised on by your own team.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your residents, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 cooks in front of your residents instead.
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.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Bagshot: care homes and access
Bagshot is in West Berkshire. Care home visits in Bagshot are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, an agreed spot for the van and food fried fresh on the day. We take the van to all 155 towns and villages across West Berkshire. You can also see our page for Reading, about 25 miles away.
For families visiting by train, Bedwyn station, about 2.4 miles west, is the nearest station. If your residents have links with Church of the Good Shepherd, a fête or open day together is a nice moment for a van visit.

We also serve nearby towns such as Newbury (10 miles east), Thatcham (12 miles east), Speenhamland (10 miles east), Lambourn (9 miles north), Shaw (10 miles east) and Kingsclere (14 miles east).

How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. In Bagshot, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:55pm and 7:10pm; winter visits, dark by about 4:00pm, suit lunchtime.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Get permission for the van from the venue
