Care home fish and chips in Broomershill, cooked to order

Fish and chips stirs happy memories for many older people. A van visit turns a meal into an event. We serve mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and we are often booked for visiting days and residents’ birthdays and anniversaries.

At a rural home near Broomershill, access matters so we can plan the route. We cook inside the van, right where your residents are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

What comes out of the fryer

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

What affects the price in Broomershill

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • How many people are eating
  • Any minimum charge
  • How long we serve
  • Access and parking

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the event is

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

How it works

Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. In summer, Broomershill has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
  2. We check where the van can park and send a quote.
  3. We plan portions and dietary needs with the home.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch at the time the home chooses.
  5. We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Give us a contact for the day

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

15 questions to ask before you book

Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Broomershill

Is Broomershill too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

Do you need power or water?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.

What can residents choose from?

Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Can you park at the home?

Your manager can choose the spot; we’ll check access.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
