Our booking checklist

How our care home fish and chips works in Nash

The care team knows each resident’s needs, so we plan portion sizes, timings and diets with the home. We’re frequently asked to cater open days for families and lunch for the care team, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.

In Nash, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Nash questions

What’s the nearest station to Nash?

The closest is Hayes (Kent) station, roughly 1.4 miles away.

Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

What does the van need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Do you bring everything you need?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Can portions be smaller?

We will agree portion sizes with your kitchen or care team.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Prices and what affects them

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How far we travel
  • The date and time of year
  • Any minimum charge

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

What to tell us

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • Expected numbers
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • A picture of where the van would go

The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Tell us about your care home visit in Nash, and we will check the date and send a price.

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Sunset in Nash is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.

  1. We start with a few details about your care home visit.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for residents.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Planning help

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A themed afternoon with a van feels like a day out, without leaving the home. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

What you get with us

  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Bookings across Greater London, including Nash

Read how we price and the cost guide.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Pick a time that suits the home’s day
  • Include staff and visitors in your numbers
  • Ask about smaller portions
  • Organise staff to carry food in

When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

A seaside theme with bunting adds to the fun.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

About the food

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
