How our film set catering works in Radnage
We need a level, firm spot at base, and a route the van can manage. Typical bookings include ad shoots and outside broadcasts, serving mushy peas, sausage and chips and pie and chips.
For a shoot in a place like Radnage, tracks and soft ground need checking with locations. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Plan bins and waste at base
We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch.

How it works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your shoot. On a winter shoot near Radnage, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
