Film set catering in Lower Brailes, cooked to order
Shoot days are long, and a hot lunch on time matters. We park at the unit base and cook to order. For stills shoots and unit base lunches, we can cook haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips for your guests.
Near Lower Brailes, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Long summer days in Lower Brailes, with light until about 9:30pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it is nearer 7:10pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Clear the route for the van

Questions from Lower Brailes
Do you come out to small places like Lower Brailes?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van come to base?
Yes, on level ground at base.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for crew are worth planning.

Is the fish gluten-free?

What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
How long are you on site?

Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
