The menu, dish by dish

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Events we cater in Boveney

It gives staff a break from the kitchen for the main meal.

  • Residents’ family gatherings
  • Birthday treats for residents

  • Seaside days

Visitors arriving by train should know that Windsor & Eton Central station is about 1.7 miles away.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Space, access and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • Away from emergency access
  • Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
  • A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What we serve

  • Haddock and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Sunset in Boveney is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Planning help

Working with your venue

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Share residents’ diets and allergies with us
  • Involve the kitchen and care team early
  • Fit the visit around routines
  • Organise staff to carry food in

We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers, quietly.

A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.

Boveney questions

Is Boveney close to London?

Roughly 24 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is Boveney 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.

How do you handle allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for residents are worth planning.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac residents and we will explain the options.

Can you come every month?

Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.

A chip van compared with other options

Entertainers and activities are great; a van visit is both. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your care home visit.

Why us?

  • We cover Boveney and the whole of Windsor and Maidenhead
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
