Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Maze Hill
For many residents, fish and chips brings back seaside trips and Friday nights. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We are frequently asked to cater seaside-themed afternoons and retirement housing and sheltered schemes, with mushy peas, gravy and cod and chips.
In Maze Hill, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The menu and how many choices
- How easy the site is to reach
- The day of the week
- Numbers
Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where the van would park
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the parking spot

Questions from Maze Hill
Is parking a problem for the van in Maze Hill?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Can the van park in East Greenwich Pleasaunce?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can staff have lunch from the van?
Yes. Add them to your numbers.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for residents are worth planning.
Where will the van park?
Wherever suits the home, as long as it is level and safe.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. In Maze Hill, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:50pm and 7:05pm; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- We agree portion sizes and any diets with your kitchen or care team.
- We serve hot from the hatch at the time the home chooses.
- Afterwards, we pack up quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Plan where the queue will stand
