Location shoots, commercials and wrap parties all suit a chip van. For wrap parties and seaside and period locations, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
Near Stonesfield, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before booking.

Events we cater in Stonesfield
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers.
A fish and chip van suits almost any gathering. People in Stonesfield book the van for events such as:
- Treat days on a long shoot
- Crew lunches at base
- Wrap celebrations
- Ad shoots
Within reach of Stonesfield are historic houses such as Blenheim Palace (3 miles east). Period locations like these normally keep vehicles well away from the house, so agree the base early.
Questions to ask before booking
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
- Allergen information for each item
- What happens if plans change
- Whether VAT is included
The process
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Stonesfield: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Clear the route for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
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.
Planning the van’s spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- A level, firm spot at the unit base
- Space in front of the hatch
- Lighting for early or late service
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
On the menu in Stonesfield

Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
- Update numbers if they change
- Confirm allergies by email
- Plan bins and waste at base
Lunch is planned around the call sheet, with a contact for changes.
Bins at base keep the location clean.

A closer look at the menu
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
