Care home fish and chips in Friday Hill, cooked to order

Friday Hill: your questions answered
Can the van park in The Highams Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Friday Hill?
The closest is Chingford station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Can you park at the home?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Friday Hill?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you do regular visits?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.
Should I sort the food myself?
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 typically the easier option.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
