The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger residents and fish-dodgers.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

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 solves that by cooking on site.

Space, access and the venue

  • Light near the van after dark
  • A route in without tight gates
  • Close to the garden or entrance

As a London location, Kensal Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What we serve

  • Cod and chips

  • Mushy peas
  • Pie and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Arrange texture-modified meals from your own kitchen
  • Fit the visit around routines
  • Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
  • Plan how food reaches residents indoors

Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray straight away.

Old seaside postcards and photos spark conversation.

How the day works

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
