Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Molash
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which should come from the home’s own kitchen and care team, so everyone can share the occasion safely. Whether it’s residents’ celebrations and care home summer fairs, we can cook pie and chips, haddock and chips and gravy.
Rural care homes near Molash 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.

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
