How our care home fish and chips works in White Waltham
Many residents prefer smaller portions on a plate. On the menu are gravy, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we’re often booked for summer fêtes and open days and visiting days.
At a rural home near White Waltham, access matters so we can plan the route. Everything is fried fresh at your care home visit, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
A chip van compared with other options
A themed afternoon with a van feels like a day out, without leaving the home. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
