Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Check the spot with your manager
  • Plan it with your catering manager
  • Organise staff to carry food in
  • Tell us about residents’ needs in writing

Families can join in, with numbers agreed in advance.

Old seaside postcards and photos spark conversation.

A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.

How it works

We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. In summer, Warbleton has daylight until about 9:15pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. We start with a few details about your care home visit.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Common questions in Warbleton

How far is Warbleton from London?

Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London.

Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Are visitors included?

Of course. Add them to your numbers.

Can you park at the home?

In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.

Can you do smaller portions for residents?

We’ll agree portion sizes with your kitchen or care team.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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.

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
