A fish and chip van or other catering?
A themed afternoon with a van feels like a day out. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.

- All the chip-shop extras
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Fit the visit around routines
- Organise staff to carry food in
- Keep the van clear of emergency access
- Plan portion sizes with us
We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers.

Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A route in without tight gates
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
- A lit spot for evening service
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
