Film set catering in Fenny Stratford, cooked to order

On a long job, a chip van day is a morale boost. We’re often asked to cater crew treats on long shoot days and unit base lunches, serving cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.

For a location shoot near Fenny Stratford, base might be in a field or farmyard. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

The process

There is very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your shoot. We handle the cooking and serving. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Fenny Stratford: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal is not.

  1. We start with the location, call times and crew numbers.
  2. We check access and send a quote.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
  4. We set up at the unit base and fry to order for the lunch break.
  5. We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
