Care home fish and chips in Bush Hill

Organising for someone else?

Organising a club, school or community event in Bush Hill? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

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.

Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Bush Hill

We visit care homes, retirement housing, sheltered schemes and day centres, for one-off events and regular visits. On the menu are sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater themed afternoons and retirement housing and sheltered schemes.

In Bush Hill, care homes normally have limited parking, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How the day works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your residents can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. In summer, Bush Hill has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden visits easy. In winter, dark by about 3:50pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

A chip van compared with other options

Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it is not lukewarm by the time it’s plated. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Why us?

  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • All the chip-shop extras
  • We cover Bush Hill and the whole of Greater London

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

FAQs for Bush Hill

Is parking a problem for the van in Bush Hill?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.

Can the van park in Enfield Town Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Where do you take the van?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

Can you park at the home?

On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac residents in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

About the food

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

What affects the price in Bush Hill
