The process
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. In Cufaude, the garden season runs from late May, with light until about 8:55pm, to late September, around 7:10pm; in winter, keep it to lunchtime.
- First, tell us about your care home visit.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
