Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Ask for dietary needs on the crew info form
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Update numbers if they change
- Plan bins and waste at base
We work to the lunch time on the call sheet, and a contact keeps us updated.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway to a location is unreliable. The van cooks on site. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Crew typically gather round the hatch as soon as we open. On a winter shoot near Spurlands End, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know the serving time
