The process
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. For a summer visit in Little Stanmore, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for residents.

Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

What about parking in Little Stanmore?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
