Care home fish and chips in Brunswick Park, cooked to order
Smaller portions and plates with cutlery suit many residents, and we plan that with you. We’re frequently asked to cater day centre treats and retirement housing and sheltered schemes, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
In Brunswick Park, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s 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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Brunswick Park
What’s the nearest station to Brunswick Park?
New Southgate station, about 0.9 miles south of the centre.
Is parking a problem for the van in Brunswick Park?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can portions be smaller?
We’ll agree portion sizes with your kitchen or care team.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
- Plan how food reaches residents indoors
- Count families who are joining in
Visitors are welcome if included in numbers.
A regular date gives everyone something to look forward to.
