About our film set catering in Cade Street

On a long shoot day, a good hot lunch keeps morale up. A fish and chip van parks at the unit base and fries to order. Popular choices include haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and we are frequently booked for photo shoots and crew treats on long shoot days.

Near Cade Street, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Your date and serving time
  • Where the event is
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

How the day works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Crew usually gather round the hatch once service starts. At midsummer, Cade Street has light until about 9:15pm, while by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm.

  1. First, tell us about your shoot.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for the crew.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Preparing for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Share the timings for the day
