- A lit spot for evening service
- Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
- A route in without tight gates
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Care home fish and chips for your care home visit in Wroxton
Some residents come out to the van; others watch from inside, and families are welcome too. We are often asked to cater seaside-themed afternoons and residents’ family gatherings, serving sausage and chips, pie and chips and gravy.
Near Wroxton, residents may not get out much, so a chip van visit is a special day. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Wroxton questions
Is Wroxton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Wroxton from London?
Roughly 68 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Where will the van park?
Wherever suits the home, as long as it’s level and safe; we’ll check access.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac residents and we will explain the options before booking.
Can portions be smaller?
Tell us what you need and we will plan portion sizes with your team.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you are ready to eat. With darkness by about 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in Wroxton suit lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
- On the day we set up and fry fresh, serving at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Get permission for the van from the venue
