About film set catering in Windsor and Maidenhead

Locations and the production office can deal with us directly. We are often asked to cater treat days on a long shoot and unit base lunches, with mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

The first sign we have arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first crew wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch.

First, the plan: what, where and what time.
We come back with availability and a clear price.
We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
We leave the spot as we found it.

Cost

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

How to get a price

Shooting in Windsor and Maidenhead: unit bases

Across Windsor and Maidenhead, bases range from car parks to farmyards. Tell us about access.

Maidenhead: Nearby historic houses include Dorney Court (3 miles south-east) and Cliveden (3.2 miles north-east). Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations. For crew arriving by train, the nearest station is Maidenhead station, about 0.5 miles south-east. Long summer days in Maidenhead, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

A level, firm spot at the unit base
Agreement from the location manager and landowner
Room for the crew to queue

The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
