Fresh fish and chips in Aston Clinton
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
- Light near the van if needed
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Aston Clinton questions
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Aston Clinton from London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London.
Do you cater wrap parties?
Yes, and crews love it. Send us the date and place.

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
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 will be straight with you about what’s possible.

We expect changes. Keep us updated and we will adapt.

Step by step
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Long summer days in Aston Clinton, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan bins and waste at base
- Flag any coeliac crew
We work to the lunch time on the call sheet, with a contact for changes.
Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
