How the day works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. With darkness by about 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in Great Rollright suit lunchtime, while summer visits can run into the evening, with light until about 9:30pm.
- It starts with your date, numbers and mealtime.
- You get an access check and a clear quote.
- Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
- We serve hot from the hatch at the time the home chooses.
- Afterwards, we pack up quietly.

Great Rollright questions
How far is Great Rollright from London?
Roughly 70 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Great Rollright?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
Can the van come to Great Rollright?
We do. Great Rollright is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.

Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Away from emergency access
- Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
- A route in without tight gates
