Fresh fish and chips in Saunderton Lee

About our care home fish and chips in Saunderton Lee

Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which the home’s own team prepares or advises on. On the menu are cod and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater residents’ birthdays and anniversaries and residents’ family gatherings.

Near Saunderton Lee, residents may not get out much, so a chip van visit is a special day. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

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

How we price a fish and chip van visit

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The date and time of year
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Service time

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The venue or postcode
  • Expected numbers
  • The date and time of the event

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

How it works

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. For a summer visit in Saunderton Lee, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
