A chip van near Fulbrook
How the day works

- First, tell us about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Give us a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
Ask for a quote
Each quote is put together for your shoot. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Film set catering for your shoot in Fulbrook
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a route the van can manage. Typical bookings include music video shoots and period dramas on location, with haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Rural locations near Fulbrook can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Everything is fried fresh at your shoot, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Update numbers if they change
- Have a back-up for special diets
Tell us if supporting artists are eating.
A chip van wrap party is a great way to finish a shoot.
