Film set catering for Glympton events
How our film set catering works in Glympton
Seaside and period locations suit a fish and chip van perfectly. For wrap celebrations and fashion shoots on location, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
For a shoot in a place like Glympton, tracks and soft ground need checking. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Perfect for your shoot in Glympton
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Seaside shoots
- Live events and broadcasts
- Ad shoots
- Crew treats on long shoot days
Nearby historic houses include Blenheim Palace (3.5 miles south). If you are shooting at a historic house, the van will need a base agreed with the property.

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Distance and any road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- The date and time of year
- Whether a minimum applies
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.

Questions from Glympton
Is Glympton too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Glympton?
The closest is Tackley station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Crew will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Send final numbers the day before
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
We clear up quickly after lunch.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
What happens on the day
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Glympton: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
- First, tell us 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
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
