Who books care home fish and chips in Wormley?
It’s an event as well as a meal, with the smell, the van and the chat.
Here are some of the occasions we serve:
- Family days
- Residents’ celebrations
- Summer fêtes and open days
- Sheltered housing get-togethers
Some homes in Wormley have links with a local church such as Church of All Saints, and a van visit can be part of a summer fête.
Questions to ask before booking
- The cancellation terms
- When final numbers are due
- What the van needs: space, access, power
- Allergen information for each item
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning a van visit in Wormley

Common questions in Wormley
Is Wormley close to London?
About 35 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Wormley?
Witley station, in Wormley itself.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac residents when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you cover Wormley?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Wormley and across Surrey. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Where will the van park?
Your manager can choose the spot; we’ll check access.

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
