Allergies and dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Agree how the base is left
  • Send final numbers the day before
  • Give us a map or what3words for base
  • Confirm allergies by email

Lunch is planned around the call sheet, with a contact for changes.

Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew

There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • The length of service
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The minimum booking
  • Cod, haddock or both

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your shoot.

Details that help

To check availability and price, we need:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Where the event is

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

15 questions to ask before booking

For planners, venues and organisers

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Step by step

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we will adjust start times and pace. In December, daylight in Hampton Wick ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight 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 agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
  4. We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
  5. We clear up and get out of the way.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Planning the van’s spot

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • A queue area clear of trucks
  • Permission for the van at base
  • Lighting for early or late service

Hampton Wick is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
