Book the van in Westerham
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
How our care home fish and chips works in Westerham
We visit care homes, retirement housing, sheltered schemes and day centres. Popular choices include haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we’re often booked for sheltered housing get-togethers and day centre treats.
In Westerham, care homes generally have limited parking, so we agree a spot clear of ambulance access. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan it with your catering manager
- Arrange texture-modified meals from your own kitchen
- Agree numbers for residents, staff and families
- Organise staff to carry food in
Staff carry plates to residents who cannot come outside, while it is hot.
Old seaside postcards and photos spark conversation.
