Film set catering in Glynde, cooked to order
A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, without needing a kitchen on location. Whether it’s photo shoots and lunch at the unit base, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips and more.
Near Glynde, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
