Care home fish and chips in Strawberry Hill, cooked to order

We visit care homes, retirement housing, sheltered schemes and day centres. Typical bookings include care staff treats and retirement village events, with gravy, pie and chips and cod and chips.

Care homes in Strawberry Hill often have a small car park or drive, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
  • A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
  • A level parking spot near the entrance

As a London location, Strawberry Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What we serve

  • Gravy
  • Sausage and chips

15 questions to ask before booking

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Garden visits in Strawberry Hill work best between late spring and early autumn, with sunset about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
