Care home fish and chips in Glebe Farm, fried fresh
The van parks in the car park, on the drive or on a firm lawn, away from emergency routes. We’re often asked to cater day centre treats and themed afternoons, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Care homes around Glebe Farm are frequently in converted houses with a drive. Let us know about the way in. We cook inside the van, right where your residents are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Your kitchen could cook it, but a van turns it into an occasion. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why book with us
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- A quote that spells everything out
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Hot food handed straight over
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Firm, level ground close to the home
- A clear way in for the van
- Not blocking ambulance bays
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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 generally the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
