A chip van near Cyprus
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. What matters most:
- A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
- Away from emergency access
- Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
Cyprus is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

About our care home fish and chips in Cyprus
Some residents come out to the van; others watch from inside, and families can join in. Whether it’s day centre treats and seaside-themed afternoons, we can cook haddock and chips, cod and chips and gravy.
Care homes in Cyprus often have a small car park or drive, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- List residents’ diets, allergies and portion needs
- Fit the visit around routines
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Plan portion sizes with us
Food for residents indoors goes straight in on plates.
Families love being included.
How the day works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a summer visit in Cyprus, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:50pm, lunchtime is best.
- 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.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
