Fresh fish and chips in Bedford Park
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Ordering takeaway to a location is unreliable. A van cooks at the unit base. Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

How our film set catering works in Bedford Park
We work with your location manager or production office on access, parking and timings. Typical bookings include event crews and lunch at the unit base, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
In Bedford Park, access to base can be tight, so tell us the route and any height limits. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Bedford Park questions
Is parking a problem for the van in Bedford Park?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Could you trade in Turnham Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we will work around changes where we can.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
What about crew who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for crew are worth planning.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Where the van can park in Bedford Park
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Permission for the van at base
- Access checked by locations
- Lighting for early or late service
As a London location, Bedford Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
Popular choices
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Crew lunches
- Cod and chips
Planners, venues and businesses
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.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
