What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A lit spot for dark mornings or evenings
- Access checked by locations
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

How our film set catering works in Fewcott
We need a level, firm spot at base, and a route the van can manage. Popular choices include sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we are frequently booked for photo shoots and unit base lunches.
Near Fewcott, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

FAQs for Fewcott
How far is Fewcott from London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Fewcott?
Bicester North station, about 4 miles south-east of the centre.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
What will the production need?
Tell us what the production needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We expect changes. Keep us updated and we will adapt.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Can you feed visitors on set?
Yes, include them in numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Sunset in Fewcott is about 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
How to get a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Some locations have nowhere to buy food. A van brings lunch to base. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
Why Fewcott hosts choose us
- A clear quote before you book
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- A van that becomes part of the event
