How our care home fish and chips works in Bramshott Chase
For many residents, fish and chips brings back seaside trips and Friday nights. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We’re frequently asked to cater summer fêtes and open days and lunch clubs, serving haddock and chips, mushy peas and gravy.
Near Bramshott Chase, residents may not get out much, so a van visit is a big occasion. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Bramshott Chase
Which station is closest to Bramshott Chase?
Haslemere station, about 1.7 miles east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Bramshott Chase?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you park at the home?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you do residents’ portions?
We will plan portions with the home.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
