Care home fish and chips in Shottermill, cooked to order
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which the home’s own team prepares or advises on, so everyone can share the occasion safely. On the menu are pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for fish and chip Fridays and sheltered housing get-togethers.
Care homes around Shottermill are often in converted houses with a drive. Tell us about access. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Questions from Shottermill
How far is Shottermill from London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Shottermill?
The closest is Haslemere station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Do you do regular visits?
Yes, ask us about regular dates.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you come to Shottermill?
We do. We serve events in Shottermill and across Surrey. Send us your date to check availability.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac residents when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
