Film set catering for your shoot in Shepherd's Bush
We work with your location manager or production office on access, parking and timings. We’re often asked to cater lunch at the unit base and location filming, with mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
London locations around Shepherd's Bush can have tight access, so tell us the route and any height limits. Everything is fried fresh at your shoot, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Shepherd's Bush questions
What about parking in Shepherd's Bush?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.
What’s the nearest station to Shepherd's Bush?
Shepherds Bush station, in Shepherd's Bush itself.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you feed visitors on set?
Yes. Just tell us who counts.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Shepherd's Bush.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. On a winter shoot near Shepherd's Bush, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- We start with a few details about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Tell us when you want to eat

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
