How our film set catering works in Fisher
Fried-to-order service suits a lunch break, without needing a kitchen on location. For crew morale days and wrap parties, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.
Near Fisher, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Fisher
How far is Fisher from London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes, include them in numbers. Tell us the day before.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac crew and we will explain the options.
Where does the van go on location?
Usually, if there’s level, firm ground. Locations will decide where.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- The location’s agreement
- A level, firm spot at the unit base
- Lighting for early or late service
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Popular choices
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Crew lunches
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
What affects the price in Fisher
These are the factors that matter most:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Distance and any road charges
- Access and parking
- Numbers
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your shoot is.

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

Why choose a fish and chip van in Fisher?
A wrap party at a venue costs more. A van makes a relaxed wrap. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- A quote that spells everything out
- Rain does not stop the fryers

The process
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. In December, daylight in Fisher ends around 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Let us know the serving time
How to get a price

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
