A chip van near Bush Hill

Film set catering in Bush Hill, fried fresh

A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, without needing a kitchen on location. For unit base lunches and photo shoots, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips and more.

In Bush Hill, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Planning for dietary needs

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

  • Plan bins and waste at base
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Share the base location and route

Tell us if supporting artists are eating.

A gazebo by the van keeps the line dry.

How the day works

Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. At midsummer, Bush Hill has light until about 9:20pm, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. We check access and send a quote.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with locations.
  4. We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
  5. We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.

How to prepare

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Ask for a quote

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can use our quote form.

Common questions in Bush Hill

Which station is closest to Bush Hill?

The closest is Grange Park station, roughly 0.5 miles away.

Is parking a problem for the van in Bush Hill?

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

Where does the van go on location?

Generally, if there is level, firm ground. Locations will decide where.

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your crew, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

What happens if it rains?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Can you adjust to schedule changes?

We can. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we’ll adjust where possible.

Do you do anything other than fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
