Film set catering in Bodle Street Green, cooked to order

Call times change, so give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust where we can. Whether it’s stills shoots and shoots on location, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips for your guests.

Rural locations near Bodle Street Green can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

  • Confirm numbers the day before
  • Give us a contact for call-time changes
  • Ask for dietary needs on the crew info form
  • Tell us about coeliac crew specifically

We take our used oil and waste with us.

What comes out of the fryer

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

How the day works

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Long summer days in Bodle Street Green, with light until about 9:15pm, suit evening wraps outdoors.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Takeaway run or book a van?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the shoot.

A chip van compared with other options

Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. A van cooks at the unit base. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Why book with us

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Hot food handed straight over
