About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Permission for the van at base
- Room for the crew to queue
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
