What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Bradwell
Fish and chips stirs happy memories for many older people. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We are frequently asked to cater visiting days and birthday treats for residents, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.

Questions from Bradwell
Could you trade in South Loughton Valley park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
How far is Bradwell from London?
About 48 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you offer repeat visits?
Yes, ask us about regular dates.
What affects the price in Bradwell
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access and parking
- The menu and how many choices
There is 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.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The address or venue name
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 solves that by cooking on site.
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.
