Film set catering across Greater London

On a long shoot day, a good hot lunch keeps morale up. We park at the unit base and cook to order. We serve cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for photo shoots and outside broadcasts.

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. You get an access check and a quote.
  3. We agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
  4. We set up at the unit base and fry to order for the lunch break.
  5. We clear up and get out of the way.

What you will pay

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.

London: London is on or near the A2 and A10, good for unit base access. Crew coming by rail can use the station: there’s a station right in London: Elephant & Castle station. At midsummer, London has light until about 9:20pm.

Allergies and dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch.

Organising a club, school or community event in Greater London? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Pie and chips

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Long shoots typically need a full catering unit. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days.
