How our care home fish and chips works in Berrylands

The van parks in the car park, on the drive or on a firm lawn, clear of ambulance access. Typical bookings include birthday treats for residents and fish and chip Fridays, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and gravy.

In Berrylands, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.

Organising for someone else?

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Where the van can park in Berrylands

If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:

  • A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
  • Not right beside residents’ rooms
  • Lighting for later visits

Berrylands is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

FAQs for Berrylands

Could you trade in Beverley Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.

What about parking in Berrylands?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.

Do you come to Berrylands?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Berrylands. For a quote, use our quote form.

What food do you serve?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Where should the van go?

Your manager can choose the spot.

Is there a non-fish option?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

Do you need power or water?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.

Can you come every month?

We’re happy to talk about repeat visits.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
