About our film set catering in Pond Park

Everything is cooked as crew come up, so it’s hot when the break is called. We’re often asked to cater unit base lunches and ad shoots, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.

Around Pond Park, locations can be rural. Tell us about the route to base. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. At midsummer, Pond Park has light until about 9:25pm, while by late September it is nearer 7:05pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Who books film set catering in Pond Park?

It’s self-contained.

  • Stills shoots
  • End-of-shoot parties
  • Music video shoots
  • Seaside and period locations

Within reach of Pond Park are historic houses such as Cholesbury Manor House (3 miles north-west) and Chenies Manor House (4.6 miles south-east). Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How many hours the van serves
  • Any minimum charge
  • A clear list of what’s included
  • If the price includes VAT

Our booking checklist

A chip van compared with other options

Next to a sandwich lunch, hot fish and chips is a real lunch. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

Why us?

  • All the chip-shop extras
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • A menu almost everyone likes

Organising for someone else?

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Questions from Pond Park

Is Pond Park close to London?

Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to Pond Park?

Amersham station, about 3.1 miles south of the centre.

Is the fish gluten-free?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac crew and we’ll explain the options.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we will send a quote.

Is everything cooked fresh?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

What if we only have street parking?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Can the van come to Pond Park?

Yes, we do. We serve events in Pond Park and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Where can the van park?

Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.

Diets, allergies and planning

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Flag any coeliac crew
  • Add an allergy question to crew forms
  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Send the unit base address and directions

We clear up quickly after lunch.

A quick pre-order speeds things up.

What affects the price in Pond Park

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Numbers
  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Cod, haddock or both

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Details that help

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Your date and serving time
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Not sure of numbers yet? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your shoot, and we’ll quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.

Planning the van’s spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • A level, firm spot at the unit base
  • Clear of the shot and sound
  • Light near the van if needed

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we serve

  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Cod and chips
