How our film set catering works in Clewer
We work with your location manager or production office on access, parking and timings. Popular choices include mushy peas, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for crew lunches at base and location filming.
Around Clewer, locations can be rural. Let us know about access. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

A chip van compared with other options
A full location catering unit suits long shoots with three meals a day. A van is great for short jobs and crew treats. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
Why us?
- Classic food your crew already know
- Something for crew to gather round
- All the chip-shop extras
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

What affects the price in Clewer
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

- Parking and the way in

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people, including children
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.
What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- Access checked by locations
- Level, firm ground at base
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
On the menu in Clewer

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Clewer
What’s the nearest station to Clewer?
Windsor & Eton Central station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
Could you trade in The Goswells?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What will the production need?
Productions vary, so send us the list and we will go through it.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac crew when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Give us a map or what3words for base
- Agree how the base is left
- Send final numbers the day before
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
A short menu keeps the line moving.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
