Our film set catering in City of London
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a clear route in. Typical bookings include crew morale days and wrap celebrations, with mushy peas, cod and chips and pie and chips.
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check the route and the unit base and send a price.
- We agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
- We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
- We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.
What you’ll pay
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What you get with us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- A menu almost everyone likes

What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A queue area clear of trucks
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- Light near the van if needed
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Give us a contact for call-time changes
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Update numbers if they change
We clear up quickly after lunch.
Plan bins at the unit base.
For event organisers in City of London
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Common questions in City of London
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac crew in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes. Let us know total numbers.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for crew are worth planning.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
We expect changes. Keep us updated and we will adapt.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
