Care home fish and chips in West Hampstead
Care home fish and chips in West Hampstead, fried fresh
Your team knows your residents best, so we plan portion sizes, timings and diets with the home. Popular choices include haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for sheltered housing get-togethers and themed afternoons.
In West Hampstead, care homes usually have limited parking, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Organising a club, school or community event in West Hampstead? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we will take it from there.
The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger residents and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Space, access and the venue
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- A route in without tight gates
- Close to the garden or entrance
- With the serving side away from windows
West Hampstead is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Gravy
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
