A chip van near Broomhall
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
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.
Film set catering in Broomhall, fried fresh
Everything is cooked as crew come up, so it is hot when the break is called. On the menu are haddock and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater unit base lunches and period dramas on location.
Around Broomhall, locations can be rural. Let us know about access. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Broomhall
Which station is closest to Broomhall?
Sunningdale station, in Broomhall itself.
Is Broomhall close to London?
Roughly 24 miles from the centre of London.
Can the van come to our wrap?
We do. It’s a great way to end a shoot.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for crew.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we will send a quote.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What about crew who do not eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
