Film set catering for Leaves Green events

Film set catering in Leaves Green, cooked to order

We cater location shoots, unit bases, commercials, music videos and wrap parties. We are often asked to cater location shoots and commercials and music videos, with pie and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas.

In Leaves Green, unit bases are often in car parks or yards. The location manager will arrange the van’s spot. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

A chip van compared with other options

A full location catering unit suits long shoots with three meals a day. A van is great for short jobs and crew treats. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Events in Leaves Green and across Greater London

About the food

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Your choice of menu
  • How far we travel
  • Any minimum charge
  • How many people are eating

The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Leaves Green

What about parking in Leaves Green?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

What if lunch moves?

Schedules move, and we plan for it. A contact on the day is all we need.

What can crew choose from?

Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

How long are you on site?

We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.

What about crew who don’t eat fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Should I sort the food myself?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Clear of the shot and sound
  • Space in front of the hatch
  • Permission for the van at base

As a London location, Leaves Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
