What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Care home fish and chips in Brimsdown, fried fresh
For many residents, fish and chips brings back seaside trips and Friday nights. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We are often asked to cater residents’ birthdays and anniversaries and fish and chip Fridays, with mushy peas, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
For a care home in Brimsdown, a short stay in the car park works well. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
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.
Where the van can park in Brimsdown
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
- A clear way in for the van
- Lighting for later visits
Brimsdown is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
What we serve
