Fresh fish and chips in Kevington
How our film set catering works in Kevington
On a long shoot day, a good hot lunch keeps morale up. A fish and chip van parks at the unit base and fries to order. Whether it is music video shoots and event crews, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips and more.
London locations around Kevington can have tight access, so tell us the route and any height limits. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your shoot, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Kevington for film and TV crews
Kevington is about 1 mile east of Orpington, in Greater London. Whether your shoot is in the middle of Kevington or on the outskirts, the service works the same way: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. Kevington is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 13 miles away.
Historic houses near Kevington include Lullingstone Castle (3.2 miles south-east) and Hall Place and Gardens (4.4 miles north). Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations. Kevington is within about 5 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, and locations in protected landscapes frequently have rules about vehicles.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. Winter shoots near Kevington chase the light, which goes at about 3:55pm in December, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
Ask for a quote

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Kevington
Is parking a problem for the van in Kevington?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Which station is closest to Kevington?
The closest is St Mary Cray station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Can you feed supporting artists too?
Yes, include them in numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can the van park on grass?
Usually, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
