Food your guests will love

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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 nobody has to miss the care home visit.

Sunnymeads: your questions answered

Could you trade in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Is Sunnymeads 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.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What about residents who don’t eat fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

Where do you take the van?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Sunnymeads.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How do you handle allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. In summer, Sunnymeads has daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Preparing for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Let us know the serving time
