Fresh fish and chips in Knotty Green
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
About our care home fish and chips in Knotty Green
Monthly or seasonal visits become a highlight. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for retirement village events and seaside days.
Rural care homes near Knotty Green can feel a long way from the seaside, so a van visit is a big occasion. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
- A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
- A level parking spot near the entrance
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Knotty Green
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
