Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Phoenix Green
Your team knows your residents best, so we plan portion sizes, timings and diets with the home. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater seaside-themed afternoons and friday fish and chip treats.
At a rural home near Phoenix Green, access matters. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
How the day works
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Garden visits in Phoenix Green work best between late spring and early autumn, with sunset about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; in winter, keep it to lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
- We check where the van can park and send a quote.
- Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
- On the day we set up and fry fresh, serving at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Phoenix Green?
Activities are important; a van visit combines a meal with an activity. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your care home visit is.
