Planning an event in Kings Worthy?
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Many locations are miles from shops. The van solves that. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Why us?
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Quick service from the hatch
- Classic food your crew already know
- Rain does not stop the fryers
Film set catering in Kings Worthy, cooked to order
Food is fried to order, so it is hot when the break is called. We are frequently asked to cater commercials and music videos and wrap celebrations, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
Near Kings Worthy, check tracks and ground for the van with locations. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will be straight with you about what we can do.

Working with your venue
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
What the van needs
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Permission for the van at base
- Access checked by locations
- Level, firm ground at base
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Popular choices
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Crew lunches
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Kings Worthy
Which station is closest to Kings Worthy?
Winchester station, about 1.8 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Kings Worthy?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What if lunch moves?
Yes. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we’ll work around changes where we can.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you park at the unit base?
Yes, wherever locations agree; we’ll check the route.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Share the base location and route
We work to the lunch time on the call sheet, with a contact for changes.
Plan bins at the unit base.
