Our film set catering in Milton Keynes

We work with your location manager or production office on access, parking and timings. We’re often asked to cater event crews and location filming, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips.

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss.

The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
You get an access check and a quote.
We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.

Landmarks near Milton Keynes

In Milton Keynes, that can mean an event near South Loughton Valley park, Summerfield School and The Countryman pub and the streets around them. Also close by are Church of Christ the Cornerstone (less than half a mile north-east) and St Paul's Catholic School (1 mile south-east). Milton Keynes has its own railway station: Milton Keynes Central station. Nearby you’ll also find Central Milton Keynes Shopping Centre (0.7 miles north-east) and Badminton Museum (0.7 miles west).

Shooting in Milton Keynes: unit bases

Locations across Milton Keynes range from streets and industrial sites in Bletchley, Newport Pagnell and Bletchley and Fenny Stratford to farms and lanes in its villages. The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base.

Milton Keynes: For cast and crew travelling by train, Milton Keynes Central station is in Milton Keynes itself. Historic houses near Milton Keynes include Linford Manor (2.5 miles north) and Bletchley Park (2.9 miles south-east). Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Milton Keynes: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.

For event organisers in Milton Keynes

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Milton Keynes? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew

There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:

Travel, tolls and road charges
Your choice of menu
The date and time of year
Parking and the way in

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

A picture of where the van would go
The spot you have in mind for the van
The date and when you’d like to eat
Rough numbers for adults and children

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

Agree how the base is left
Confirm numbers the day before
Collect diets and allergies with crew details
Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

After service, we pack up and get out of the way.

A dining area at base helps.

Milton Keynes questions

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

What if we only have street parking?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What will the production need?

Every production asks for different things, so send us the list.

Do you cater wrap parties?

Yes, and crews love it. Send us the date and place.

Can you cater for allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Which areas do you serve?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Milton Keynes.
