Film set catering for Brasted events

Film set catering in Brasted, cooked to order

Fried-to-order service suits a lunch break, without needing a kitchen on location. Whether it’s music video shoots and crew morale days, we can cook haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips and more.

In Brasted, unit bases are often in car parks or yards. Locations will have the parking arrangements. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Organising for someone else?

Venues frequently 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.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • Access checked by locations
  • Away from the shooting area’s sound
  • A queue area clear of trucks

Brasted is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we serve

About the food

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Should I sort the food myself?

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. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Make sure we can reach locations on the day
  • Send the unit base address and directions
  • Collect diets and allergies with crew details
  • Send allergies to us in writing

We arrive at base in good time and set up, out of the way.

Plan bins at the unit base.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?

Long shoots typically need a full catering unit. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Why book our van in Brasted

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Bookings across Greater London, including Brasted
  • Something for crew to gather round

Take a look at how we price or the cost guide.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Long summer days in Brasted, with light until about 9:20pm, suit evening wraps outdoors.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. We check the route and the unit base and send a price.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with locations.
  4. We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
  5. Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Name one person we can call on the day

FAQs for Brasted

What about parking in Brasted?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.

Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What will the production need?

Every production asks for different things, so send us the list.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac crew when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Do you take everything away?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

  • 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
