DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Care home fish and chips in Wimbledon Park, cooked to order
Fish and chips stirs happy memories for many older people. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. We serve pie and chips, cod and chips and gravy, and we’re often booked for residents’ celebrations and a monthly fish and chip day.
In Wimbledon Park, we park briefly in the home’s car park or drive, as agreed with the manager. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Wimbledon Park
Can the van park in King George's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
What about parking in Wimbledon Park?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Can portions be smaller?
Portion sizes are agreed in advance.
Can everyone take part?
Yes, with meals for texture-modified diets from the home’s own kitchen.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Access the van can manage
- Lighting for later visits
- Close to the garden or entrance
Wimbledon Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
