Film set catering in Conford, fried fresh
Seaside and period locations suit a fish and chip van perfectly. Typical bookings include ad shoots and crew morale days, with mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
Near Conford, check tracks and ground for the van with locations. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Where the van can park in Conford
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
- A clear route to base
- Space in front of the hatch
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
