Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
The process
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Daylight is short on winter shoots near New Yatt: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- First, tell us about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
Getting a price
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Do you have documents for productions?
Tell us what the production needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do we need to provide equipment?

What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Plan bins and waste at base
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Ensure we can reach locations on the day
- Let us know about coeliac disease
Tell us if supporting artists are eating.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
Before you choose a spot

- Clear of the shot and sound

- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
