Film set catering in Hanger Hill

Film set catering for your shoot in Hanger Hill

We cater location shoots, unit bases, commercials, music videos and wrap parties. For commercials and music videos and seaside shoots, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.

In Hanger Hill, access to base can be tight, so tell us the route and any height limits. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Hanger Hill

Could you trade in Ealing Common?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Is parking a problem for the van in Hanger Hill?

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

What does it cost to hire the van?

We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.

Can the van come to base?

Typically, if there’s level, firm ground. We’ll agree the spot with your location manager.

When do you arrive?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

Diets, allergies and planning

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

  • Give us a map or what3words for base
  • Ask for dietary needs on the crew info form
  • Name a contact in the production office
  • Have a back-up for special diets

Fewer choices mean faster service in a lunch break.

Pre-orders from the crew help on tight breaks.

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

How the day works

The first sign we’ve arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first crew wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. Long summer days in Hanger Hill, with light until about 9:20pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
