About our film set catering in Knightsbridge

A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, with no kitchen needed on site. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for treat days on a long shoot and music video shoots.

In Knightsbridge, access to base can be tight, so tell us the route and any height limits. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Add an allergy question to crew forms
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Send final numbers the day before
  • Agree how the base is left

We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch, out of the way.

Pre-orders from the crew help on tight breaks.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?

A full location catering unit suits long shoots with three meals a day. A van is great for short jobs and crew treats. Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Should I sort the food myself?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many people are eating
  • Service time
  • The date and time of year
  • Cod, haddock or both

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Where the van would park
  • Allergies and diets you know about

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

The menu, dish by dish

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Planning the van’s spot

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • A clear route to base
  • Lighting for early or late service
  • A queue area clear of trucks

Knightsbridge is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Crew lunches
  • Sausage and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Pie and chips

Step by step

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. In December, daylight in Knightsbridge ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Make sure the van can get in
  • Have a level parking spot ready
