How our care home fish and chips works in Brixton
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which the home’s own team prepares or advises on, so everyone can share the occasion safely. Typical bookings include residents’ family gatherings and staff thank-you lunches at the home, serving gravy, mushy peas and cod and chips.
In Brixton, care homes generally have limited parking, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. For a summer visit in Brixton, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
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.
