Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Agree how the base is left
- Send the unit base address and directions
After service, we pack up and get out of the way.
A chip van wrap party is a great way to finish a shoot.
Bradville: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Bradville?
The closest is Wolverton station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Can the van park in Campbell Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac crew and we will explain the options before you book.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Do you cover Bradville?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Bradville. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Working with your venue
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
- A clear route to base
- A queue area clear of trucks
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Crew lunches
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips

Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Your choice of menu
- How long we serve
- How easy the site is to reach
- Numbers
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
The more we know about your shoot, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Where the event is

- Anything awkward about the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
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.
Events we cater in Bradville
It’s ideal for short jobs.
In Bradville and nearby, the van turns up at all sorts of events. Some of the most common are:
- Stills shoots
- Treat days on a long shoot
- Commercials and music videos

Historic houses near Bradville include Linford Manor (1.5 miles north-east) and Bletchley Park (4.5 miles south-east). Period locations like these typically keep vehicles well away from the house, so agree the base early.

A chip van compared with other options
Some locations have nowhere to buy food. A van brings lunch to base. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
