How our care home fish and chips works in Westbourne Green
Fish and chips stirs happy memories for many older people. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We are often asked to cater seaside days and friday fish and chip treats, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Care homes in Westbourne Green often have a small car park or drive, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. 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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Common questions in Westbourne Green
Which station is closest to Westbourne Green?
London Paddington station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
What about parking in Westbourne Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
What about residents on soft diets?
The home knows each resident best. Share the diets and we’ll say what we can do; texture-modified meals should be prepared or advised on by your own team.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Westbourne Green?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Westbourne Green? 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.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
A chip van compared with other options
