How our film set catering works in Parslow's Hillock

What happens on the day
We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. In December, daylight in Parslow's Hillock ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the van can get in
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
Getting a price
It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
