Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Can you cook in the rain?

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it isn’t lukewarm by the time it’s plated. 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.
