Sibford Gower: your questions answered
How far is Sibford Gower from London?
About 70 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Sibford Gower too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Can you park at the home?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
Can the van come to Sibford Gower?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Sibford Gower. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac residents when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Organise staff to carry food in
- Let us know if smaller portions suit
Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray right away.
A seaside theme with bunting adds to the fun.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Sibford Gower? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, timed around your care home visit. Garden visits in Sibford Gower work best between late spring and early autumn, with sunset about 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September; in winter, keep it to lunchtime.
- We start with a few details about your care home visit.
- You get an availability check and a clear 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
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
How to get a price
