The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
- A level parking spot near the entrance
- A lit spot for evening service
As a London location, Isleworth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Food your guests will love
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
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.
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
Room service goes up covered and hot.
Make it a regular event.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
