Film set catering in Langney, fried fresh
We need a level, firm spot at base, and a route the van can manage. We are frequently asked to cater shoots on location and lunch at the unit base, serving sausage and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips.
For a location shoot near Langney, base might be in a field or farmyard, so ground conditions matter. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

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 is crisp.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Access and parking
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
- Any minimum charge
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.

Common questions in Langney
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Do you come to Langney?
We do. We serve events in Langney and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Can the van come to base?
Normally, if there is level, firm ground. We will agree the spot with your location manager.
Do you cater wrap parties?
Yes, and crews love it. Send us the date and place.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including East Sussex. Find your area.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac crew when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Send final numbers the day before
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Let us know about coeliac disease
We arrive at base in good time and set up.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
