Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Southfields
Smaller portions and plates with cutlery suit many residents. We’re frequently asked to cater day centre treats and themed afternoons, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
In Southfields, care homes normally have limited parking, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Southfields
What about parking in Southfields?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
Which station is closest to Southfields?
Southfields has its own station: Earlsfield station.
Do you offer repeat visits?
Tell us how frequently you’d like a visit.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Southfields.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- With the serving side away from windows
- Away from emergency access
- A clear way in for the van
As a London location, Southfields 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.
