Book the van in Forty Green

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

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 solves that by cooking on site.

About our care home fish and chips in Forty Green

Your team knows your residents best, so we work with the home on portions and diets. For fish and chip Fridays and birthday treats for residents, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips.

At a rural home near Forty Green, access matters so we can plan the route. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Forty Green

Is Forty Green too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

What’s the nearest station to Forty Green?

The closest is Beaconsfield station, roughly 0.9 miles away.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.

What can residents choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Is there a non-fish option?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

Organising for someone else?

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Sunset in Forty Green is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
