How our film set catering works in Guestling Green
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. Whether it’s ad shoots and seaside shoots, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips for your guests.
For a shoot in a place like Guestling Green, tracks and soft ground need checking with locations. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Guestling Green: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- It starts with the unit base, dates and numbers.
- We check the route and the unit base and send a price.
- We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
- We set up at the unit base and fry to order for the lunch break.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.

Guestling Green: your questions answered
Can you serve near the sea around Guestling Green?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park in Speckled Wood?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we’ll work around changes where we can.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we’ll send a quote.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Do you do wrap parties?
Yes. It is a great way to end a shoot.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Share the base location and route
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Agree how the base is left
We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
