About our film set catering in Slough Green

Fried-to-order service suits a lunch break, with no kitchen needed on site. We’re frequently asked to cater commercials and music videos and seaside shoots, serving sausage and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

For a shoot in a place like Slough Green, tracks and soft ground need checking. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

For event organisers in Slough Green

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

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.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

Planning for dietary needs

Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Update numbers if they change
  • Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
  • Send the unit base address and directions
  • Plan bins and waste at base

We clear up quickly after lunch.

Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.

About the food

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

Before you choose a spot

Every site is different, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • Room for the crew to queue
  • A clear route to base
  • Level, firm ground at base

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

What we serve

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