Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Many locations are miles from shops. The van solves that. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
What you get with us
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Bookings across Oxfordshire, including North Weston
