About our care home fish and chips in Streatham Hill

Your team knows your residents best, so we work with the home on portions and diets. Whether it’s fish and chip Fridays and day centre treats, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and gravy.

For a care home in Streatham Hill, a short stay in the car park works well, as agreed with the manager. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

How to compare vans

Before you choose a spot

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

Light near the van after dark
A level parking spot near the entrance
With the serving side away from windows

As a London location, Streatham 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Haddock and chips

How the day works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. In summer, Streatham Hill has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

We start with a few details about your care home visit.
We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
We cook to order on the day for residents.
We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

Organise staff to carry food in
Count families who are joining in
Check the spot with your manager
List residents’ diets, allergies and portion needs

We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers.

Music from the 1950s and 60s sets the mood.
