Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
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.

A chip van is a popular crew treat on a long shoot. Whether it is crew treats on long shoot days and commercials and music videos, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas for your guests.

Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Give us a contact for call-time changes
- Send the unit base address and directions
- Update numbers if they change
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
After service, we pack up and get out of the way.
Tables or a marquee at base make lunch comfortable.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Light near the van if needed
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we serve

Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. A van cooks at the unit base. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

How it works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. Sunset in Brightwalton Green is about 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Plan where the queue will stand

What affects the price in Brightwalton Green
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
- How far we travel
- Access and parking
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- The address or venue name
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where the van would park
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
