How our film set catering works in Hatton
Location shoots, commercials and wrap parties all suit a chip van. On the menu are pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and we’re often booked for fashion shoots on location and crew treats on long shoot days.
Shoots in Hatton often use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. The location manager will arrange the van’s spot, frequently with council permission. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your shoot, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Whether a minimum applies
- The length of service
- Your choice of menu
- How easy the site is to reach
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and when you’d like to eat

- A photo of the parking spot

Common questions in Hatton
What about parking in Hatton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Can the van park in Hounslow Heath?

Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
What will the production need?
Tell us what the production needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How do you handle allergies?
