Questions from Stonebridge Green
Which station is closest to Stonebridge Green?
Charing station, about 2.2 miles east of the centre.
Can the van go to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the production needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for crew.
About our film set catering in Stonebridge Green
A chip van is a popular crew treat on a long shoot, alongside regular catering. Whether it’s seaside and period locations and stills shoots, we can cook pie and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips for your guests.
Near Stonebridge Green, check tracks and ground for the van. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance and any road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- The minimum booking
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, 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:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- A picture of where the van would go
- Roughly how many people, including children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
