Space, access and the venue
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. The main points are:
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
- Close to the garden or entrance
- Access the van can manage
As a London location, Nine Elms is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Is a fish and chip van right for your care home visit?
A trip out to a restaurant is hard for many residents. A van brings the treat to them. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- Quick service from the hatch
- A clear quote before you book
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
