A fish and chip van or other catering?
A trip out to a restaurant is hard for many residents. The van comes to the home. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
Why book with us
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Quick service from the hatch
- All the chip-shop extras
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
The process
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In North Weston, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:55pm and 7:10pm; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
Ask for a quote
