A chip van compared with other options
The home’s kitchen can make fish and chips, but a van makes it an event. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your care home visit is.
Why us?
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- All the chip-shop extras
- No kitchen needed

Who books care home fish and chips in Naphill?
The home only needs to provide a parking spot.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:
- Open days for families
- Friday fish and chip treats
- Lunch for the care team
- Day centres and lunch clubs
Some homes in Naphill have links with a local church such as Church of St Botolph, and a van visit can be part of a summer fête.
What your quote should include
- VAT, if it applies
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How late numbers can change
- What the van needs: space, access, power
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Share residents’ diets and allergies with us
- Plan it with your catering manager
- Choose a time around meals and medication
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
Food for residents indoors goes straight in on plates, while it’s hot.
Seaside photos give people something to talk about.
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Naphill questions
Is Naphill close to London?
About 32 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Naphill?
The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Naphill.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your residents, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can everyone take part?
The home knows each resident best. Share the diets and we will say what we can do; texture-modified meals should be prepared or advised on by your own team.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac residents in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. December visits in Naphill are best at lunchtime, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
