How our film set catering works in Graffham
Schedules move, so a contact on the day helps and we’ll work around it. For commercials and music videos and crew lunches at base, we can cook cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
Near Graffham, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Graffham
How far is Graffham from London?
About 46 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Graffham?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How much does a fish and chip van for the crew cost in Graffham?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we’ll send a quote.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes. Just tell us who counts.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

The process
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. In December, daylight in Graffham ends around 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
