About our care home fish and chips in Perivale
Many residents prefer smaller portions on a plate, and we plan that with you. Whether it is retirement village events and day centre treats, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
Care homes in Perivale often have a small car park or drive, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. Everything is fried fresh at your care home visit, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
