Film set catering in Dancers Hill, cooked to order
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a route the van can manage. For crew morale days and lunch at the unit base, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips for your guests.
Shoots in Dancers Hill frequently use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. The location manager will arrange the van’s spot. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
