Planning an event in Stratton Audley?
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Film set catering for your shoot in Stratton Audley
Locations and the production office can deal with us directly. We serve mushy peas, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for lunch at the unit base and music video shoots.
For a shoot in a place like Stratton Audley, tracks and soft ground need checking with locations. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Crew usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Long summer days in Stratton Audley, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it is nearer 7:10pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
