- The minimum booking
- The date and time of year
- Service time
- Parking and the way in
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.

A chip van compared with other options
Long shoots generally need a full catering unit. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

Jury's Gap questions
Which station is closest to Jury's Gap?
Rye station, about 4.5 miles west of the centre.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for crew.
Where does the van go on location?
Yes, on level ground at base; we will check the route.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Do you cover Jury's Gap?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Jury's Gap is within our area. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
