Care home fish and chips in South Kenton, fried fresh

The care team knows each resident’s needs, so we work with the home on portions and diets. We serve cod and chips, gravy and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater seaside-themed afternoons and fish and chip Fridays.

Care homes in South Kenton frequently have a small car park or drive, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. We cook inside the van, right where your residents are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Arrange texture-modified meals from your own kitchen
  • Plan how food reaches residents indoors
  • Share residents’ diets and allergies with us
  • Agree numbers for residents, staff and families

Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray right away.

Bunting, deckchairs and a seaside theme make it an occasion.

Where the van can park in South Kenton

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
  • A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
  • Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes

As a London location, South Kenton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common questions in South Kenton

Which station is closest to South Kenton?

South Kenton has its own station: South Kenton station.

Could you trade in Preston Park?

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

What does it cost to hire the van?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.

What can residents choose from?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for residents.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.

Can staff have lunch from the van?

Yes. Add them to your numbers.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

Planners, venues and businesses

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Numbers

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • A picture of where the van would go

Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, fill in our quote form.

Step by step

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. With darkness by about 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in South Kenton suit lunchtime.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Plan where the queue will stand

Ask for a quote
