Care home fish and chips in Bray, fried fresh
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which should come from the home’s own kitchen and care team, so everyone can share the occasion safely. For seaside days and retirement village events, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips.
Rural care homes near Bray can feel a long way from the seaside, so a van visit is a big occasion. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Service time
- The minimum booking
- Parking and the way in
- Your choice of menu
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

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

Bray: your questions answered
Could you trade in Braywick Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Bray close to London?
About 26 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can staff have lunch from the van?
Yes. Add them to your numbers.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your residents, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for residents are worth planning.
