For a shoot in a place like Bosham, tracks and soft ground need checking with locations. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
A full location catering unit suits long shoots with three meals a day. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your shoot.

Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.

The process
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Bosham: sunset is about 4:00pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
