Film set catering in Fawler, cooked to order
Seaside and period locations suit a fish and chip van perfectly. We are frequently asked to cater seaside and period locations and crew treats on long shoot days, with pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Fawler, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
