How our care home fish and chips works in Seven Sisters
The care team knows each resident’s needs, so we work with the home on portions and diets. Typical bookings include lunch clubs and care staff treats, with gravy, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
In Seven Sisters, care homes typically have limited parking, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
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.
How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Residents will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. With darkness by about 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in Seven Sisters suit lunchtime, while summer visits can run into the evening, with light until about 9:20pm.
- First, tell us about your care home visit.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Let us know the serving time
