About our film set catering in Deane
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot when the break is called. For outside broadcasts and stills shoots, we can cook cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
For a shoot in a place like Deane, tracks and soft ground need checking. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
What the van needs
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- A clear route to base
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Crew lunches

Planning a shoot in Deane
Deane is about 5 miles west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. We cover Deane as standard, so your shoot just needs a date, a spot for the van and a serving time. Deane is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. We serve events right across the region, from Deane to Reading (17 miles away).
Deane is roughly 51 miles from central London, within easy reach for London-based crews.
We cover shoots in every part of the RG25 postcode area. Close by, we cover shoots in Oakley (2 miles east), Overton (2 miles west), Quidhampton (2 miles west), Newfound (2 miles east) and North Waltham (2 miles south-east).

Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Service time
- Whether a minimum applies
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access and parking
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The venue or postcode
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability right away.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Long shoots usually need a full catering unit. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.
Why us?
- No surprises in your quote
- Classic food your crew already know

How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In December, daylight in Deane ends around 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Before we arrive
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Name one person we can call on the day
Ask for a quote
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
