Looking after everyone
Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Plan it with your catering manager
- Ask about smaller portions
- Choose a time around meals and medication
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
We set up before the mealtime, quietly.
Bunting, deckchairs and a seaside theme make it an occasion.

North Sheen questions
Can the van park in Dukes Meadows?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to North Sheen?
North Sheen has its own station: Kew Gardens station.
Do you do regular visits?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you do smaller portions for residents?
Tell us what you need and we’ll plan portion sizes with your team.
What about residents who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your care home visit. In North Sheen, the garden season runs from late May, with light until about 8:55pm, to late September, around 7:05pm; in winter, keep it to lunchtime.
- We start with the date, numbers and a serving time that suits the home.
- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- We agree portion sizes and any diets with your kitchen or care team.
- We park up and cook to order at mealtime.
- We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Ensure the van can get in

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Away from bedroom windows
- A lit spot for evening service
- A clear way in for the van
As a London location, North Sheen is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
