Care home fish and chips in Haggerston, cooked to order
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which the home’s own team prepares or advises on. For fish and chip Fridays and summer fêtes and open days, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips and more.
For a care home in Haggerston, a short stay in the car park works well, as agreed with the manager. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

For event organisers in Haggerston
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Count families who are joining in
- Check the spot with your manager
- Tell us about residents’ needs in writing
- Arrange texture-modified meals from your own kitchen
Room service goes up covered and hot.
Bunting, deckchairs and a seaside theme make it an occasion.
