Film set catering in Russ Hill
How our film set catering works in Russ Hill
Location shoots, commercials and wrap parties all suit a chip van. Typical bookings include photo shoots and treat days on a long shoot, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips.
For a shoot in a place like Russ Hill, tracks and soft ground need checking. 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
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.

Russ Hill questions
Is Russ Hill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Where does the van go on location?
Yes, on level ground at base; we will check the route.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for crew.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we’ll send a quote.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
What if lunch moves?
Yes. Give us a contact for changes, and we will work around changes where we can.
