Film set catering for your shoot in Spanish Green
A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, with no kitchen needed on site. We are frequently asked to cater crew treats on long shoot days and unit base lunches, with mushy peas, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Rural locations near Spanish Green can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of meals
- Parking and the way in
- Distance and any road charges
- Your choice of menu
Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A photo of the parking spot
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Your date and serving time
Not sure of numbers yet? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your shoot, and we will quote on that. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
- Access checked by locations
- Room for the crew to queue
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
From the hatch
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Crew lunches
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
FAQs for Spanish Green
What’s the nearest station to Spanish Green?
Bramley (Hants) station, about 2.3 miles west of the centre.
Is Spanish Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you feed visitors on set?
Yes, if they’re in your numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you cater wrap parties?
Yes, it is a popular wrap. Send us the date and place.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Spanish Green?
Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. A van cooks at the unit base. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
The process
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace. Long summer days in Spanish Green, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors.
- It starts with the unit base, dates and numbers.
- You get an access check and a quote.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with locations.
- We serve hot from the hatch when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
