Care home fish and chips in Lessness Heath
Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How many people are eating
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
- Service time
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Expected numbers
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A photo of the parking spot
Send us the date, the address or DA17 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Lessness Heath questions
What’s the nearest station to Lessness Heath?
Belvedere station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Could you trade in Lesnes Abbey Woods?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
Where will the van park?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can staff have lunch from the van?
Yes, it is a lovely chance for families to visit.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

For planners, venues and organisers
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 will work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Plan IDDSI-level meals with your own team
- Plan it with your catering manager
- Organise staff to carry food in
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
We set up before the mealtime, quietly.
Make it a regular event.

Planning help
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A lit spot for evening service
- A level parking spot near the entrance
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
As a London location, Lessness Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
