Fresh fish and chips in Hook Green
Film set catering for your shoot in Hook Green
Schedules move, so a contact on the day helps and we will adjust where we can. Typical bookings include crew morale days and stills shoots, with cod and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
For a shoot in a place like Hook Green, tracks and soft ground need checking. Everything is fried fresh at your shoot, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Hook Green?
Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. The van cooks on site. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
What you get with us
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
