A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger residents and fish-dodgers.

Diets, allergies and planning

Prices and what affects them

There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • How far we travel
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The menu and how many choices
  • Parking and the way in

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your care home visit.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • The date and time of the event
  • The venue or postcode

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Is a fish and chip van right for your care home visit?

Entertainers and activities are great; a van visit combines a meal with an activity. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book our van in Three Leg Cross

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • No kitchen needed
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

Should I sort the food myself?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Organising for someone else?

Step by step

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your residents can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Three Leg Cross is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  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.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Share the timings for the day
