A chip van near Moulsoe
How our care home fish and chips works in Moulsoe
The van parks in the car park, on the drive or on a firm lawn, clear of ambulance access. For day centre treats and themed afternoons, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips and more.
Near Moulsoe, residents may not get out much, so a van visit is a big occasion. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Organising for someone else?
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Plan how food reaches residents indoors
- Fit the visit around routines
- Ask about smaller portions
We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers, quietly.
Music from the 1950s and 60s sets the mood.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
