Care home fish and chips in Hanger Hill

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

How our care home fish and chips works in Hanger Hill

Monthly or seasonal visits become a highlight. We are frequently asked to cater seaside-themed afternoons and care home summer fairs, with pie and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.

In Hanger Hill, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. We cook inside the van, right where your residents are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Food your guests will love

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Not blocking ambulance bays
  • A lit spot for evening service
  • A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive

Hanger Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

How it works

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Sunset in Hanger Hill is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Let us know the serving time

Questions from Hanger Hill

Could you trade in Ealing Common?

Is parking a problem for the van in Hanger Hill?

Is everything cooked fresh?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

How long will the queue be?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your residents, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

Takeaway run or book a van?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

What affects the price in Hanger Hill

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • The day of the week

  • The number of meals
  • Access and parking

The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
