How our care home fish and chips works in Priestwood Green

Your team knows your residents best, so we work with the home on portions and diets. On the menu are haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater seaside days and staff thank-you lunches at the home.

At a rural home near Priestwood Green, access matters. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Looking after everyone

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Let us know if smaller portions suit
  • Plan IDDSI-level meals with your own team

We serve at the time the home chooses, around meals and medication.

A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.

Choosing a fish and chip van

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it isn’t lukewarm by the time it’s plated. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Why us?

  • No surprises in your quote
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm

Read our pricing or our guide to van hire costs.

Before you choose a spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • Close to the garden or entrance
  • A route in without tight gates
  • Lighting for later visits

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Popular choices

  • Gravy
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips

How it works

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. In Priestwood Green, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:50pm and 7:00pm; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Make sure the van can get in
  • Plan where the queue will stand

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
