Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. A van cooks at the unit base. Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Classic food your crew already know
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
What the van needs
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Permission for the van at base
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Level, firm ground at base
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Crew lunches
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. On a winter shoot near Frogmill, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Clear the route for the van
- Plan where the queue will stand
