Film set catering in Broadbridge, cooked to order
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a clear route in. Whether it is music video shoots and crew treats on long shoot days, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
Rural locations near Broadbridge can be a long way from food, so a van at base is a big help. Everything is fried fresh at your shoot, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- The date and time of year
- The menu and how many choices
- Any minimum charge
- Distance and any road charges
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Rough numbers for adults and children
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.
Step by step
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your shoot. Light in Broadbridge lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Each quote is put together for your shoot. Give us your date first, and we will check availability right away.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Broadbridge
Which station is closest to Broadbridge?
Broadbridge has its own station: Bosham station.
Is Broadbridge too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van come to base?
Typically, with a level spot. We will agree the spot with your location manager.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes, if they’re in your numbers. Tell us the day before.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we’ll adjust where possible.
What paperwork do you provide?
Productions vary, so ask your production office for the list and we will go through it.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway to a location is unreliable. A van cooks at the unit base. Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Events in Broadbridge and across West Sussex
- Classic food your crew already know
- A van that becomes part of the event
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
