Care home fish and chips for Remenham events

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • With the serving side away from windows
  • Light near the van after dark
  • Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

How our care home fish and chips works in Remenham

The van parks in the car park, on the drive or on a firm lawn, away from emergency routes. For care home summer fairs and sheltered housing get-togethers, we can cook haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

Rural care homes near Remenham can feel a long way from the seaside, so a van visit is a big occasion. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Looking after everyone

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

  • Agree the plan with your kitchen and care team
  • Let us know if smaller portions suit
  • Share residents’ diets and allergies with us
  • Plan how food reaches residents indoors

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

A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

What happens on the day

We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In Remenham, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:55pm and 7:05pm; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.

  1. First, tell us about your care home visit.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

What affects the price in Remenham

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • The minimum booking
  • Your choice of menu
  • Numbers
  • The day of the week

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

Details that help

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • The address or venue name
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Your date and serving time

Send us the date, the address or RG9 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.

For event organisers in Remenham

Common questions in Remenham

Can the van park in Fawley Court and Temple Island?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Is Remenham close to London?

Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London.

Can portions be smaller?

Portion sizes are agreed in advance.

Who clears up?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Do you do regular visits?

We are happy to talk about repeat visits.

How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Remenham?

We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.

Does the batter contain gluten?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac residents and we will explain the options before booking.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

A chip van compared with other options

Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it isn’t lukewarm by the time it’s plated. Larger groups typically cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book with us

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Hot food handed straight over
