Film set catering in Eversley Cross, cooked to order
Food is fried to order, so lunch is hot and fresh. We’re often asked to cater wrap celebrations and crew lunches at base, with haddock and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips.
Near Eversley Cross, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. We cook inside the van, right where your crew are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
A wrap party at a venue costs more. A van keeps it relaxed and simple. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
Why us?
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Events in Eversley Cross and across Hampshire
- A quote that spells everything out
- Served hot, straight from the hatch

What affects the price in Eversley Cross
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How long we serve
- The menu and how many choices
- How far we travel
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
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.
