Care home fish and chips in Connaught Village

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Connaught Village

Is parking a problem for the van in Connaught Village?

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

Could you trade in Hyde Park?

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

Can everyone take part?

Yes, with meals for texture-modified diets from the home’s own kitchen, following their care plans.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Can families and staff eat too?

Yes, it’s a lovely chance for families to visit.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

What about residents who do not eat fish?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

Care home fish and chips in Connaught Village, fried fresh

Monthly or seasonal visits become a highlight. We serve sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater fish and chip Fridays and retirement village events.

Care homes in Connaught Village often have a small car park or drive, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Food your guests will love

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

For event organisers in Connaught Village

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Organising a club, school or community event in Connaught Village? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.

Can’t 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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Tell us about residents’ needs in writing
  • Fit the visit around routines
  • Plan how food reaches residents indoors
  • Ask about smaller portions

Visitors are welcome if included in numbers.

Space, access and the venue

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
  • Access the van can manage
  • Close to the garden or entrance

As a London location, Connaught Village is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
