Shooting in Grahame Park: unit bases and access

Grahame Park is about 1 mile south-east of Burnt Oak, in Greater London. We park up at drives, car parks, yards and venues around Grahame Park. Grahame Park is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our bookings stretch from Grahame Park to London (9 miles away).

Historic houses near Grahame Park include Heath Hall (3.5 miles south-east) and Heath House (3.7 miles south-east). Period locations like these normally keep vehicles well away from the house, so agree the base early. Grahame Park is on or near the M1, good for unit base access.

Anywhere in NW9, NW7 and NW4, we can bring the van to you. Local streets include Hall Lane, Booth Road and Harrier Road; a shoot on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Being close to the M1, Grahame Park is easy for us to reach with the van. For shoots just outside Grahame Park, we cover Burnt Oak (1 mile north-west), Mill Hill (1 mile north), The Hale (2 miles north-west), Edgware (2 miles north-west) and Little Stanmore (2 miles west).

Film set catering for your shoot in Grahame Park

Shoot days are long, and a hot lunch on time matters. A fish and chip van parks at the unit base and fries to order. We serve sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater live events and broadcasts and commercials and music videos.

In Grahame Park, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Step by step

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Crew normally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. On a winter shoot near Grahame Park, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. You get an access check and a quote.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch when lunch is called.
  5. We clear up and get out of the way.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Have a level parking spot ready

Allergies and dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Name a contact in the production office
  • Share the base location and route
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Agree how the base is left

We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch, out of the way.

Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.

Questions from Grahame Park

Is parking a problem for the van in Grahame Park?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

What’s the nearest station to Grahame Park?

The closest is Mill Hill Broadway station, roughly 0.9 miles away.

What if lunch moves?

We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we’ll adjust where possible.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your crew, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Can you park at the unit base?

Generally, with a level spot. Locations will decide where.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Lighting for early or late service
  • Space in front of the hatch
  • A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes

As a London location, Grahame Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Crew lunches
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips

Working with your venue

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.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of meals
  • How far we travel
  • Parking and the way in

The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Your date and serving time
  • The address or venue name
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Expected numbers

Send us the date, the address or NW9 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, fill in our quote form.
