About our care home fish and chips in Brasted Chart
Many residents prefer smaller portions on a plate, and we plan that with you. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and gravy, and typical bookings are for visiting days and day centres and lunch clubs.

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Count families who are joining in
- Let us know if smaller portions suit
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Plan it with your catering manager
Room service goes up covered and hot.
A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
- A lit spot for evening service
- Access the van can manage
As a London location, Brasted Chart is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Your kitchen could cook it, but a van turns it into an occasion. There’s 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.
