A chip van near Enfield Highway
How our film set catering works in Enfield Highway
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a route the van can manage. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater end-of-shoot parties and photo shoots.
In Enfield Highway, unit bases are frequently in car parks or yards. The location manager will arrange the van’s spot, frequently with council permission. We cook inside the van, right where your crew are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Room for the crew to queue
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Light near the van if needed
Enfield Highway is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips

Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Common questions in Enfield Highway
What about parking in Enfield Highway?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
Which station is closest to Enfield Highway?
The closest is Brimsdown station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can you feed visitors on set?
Yes. Just tell us who counts.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
