If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

- How long we serve

Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Your kitchen could cook it, but a van makes it an event. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your care home visit.

A closer look at the menu
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.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Agree numbers for residents, staff and families
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
We set up before the mealtime.
