How our film set catering works in Sudbury
Seaside and period locations suit a fish and chip van perfectly. We serve sausage and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for music video shoots and lunch at the unit base.
In Sudbury, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. A van cooks at the unit base. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
Why Sudbury hosts choose us
- Classic food your crew already know
- A quote that spells everything out
- Something for crew to gather round
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. On a winter shoot near Sudbury, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Historic houses are popular locations, and most set strict rules for vehicles, so plan the unit base with locations.
This part of Greater London takes in HA0, UB6 and HA1, and we can serve your shoot anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Elms Lane, Harrow Road and Perrin Road, and the van can serve a shoot on any of them with a suitable parking spot. Being close to the A4005, Sudbury is easy for us to reach for your shoot.

Planning for dietary needs

- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
We clear up quickly after lunch.
Plan bins at the unit base.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. The main points are:
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
- Level, firm ground at base
- Light near the van if needed
As a London location, Sudbury is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
From the hatch

What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy the site is to reach
- Numbers
- The menu and how many choices
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, fill in our quote form.
Sudbury: your questions answered
Can the van park in Preston Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first.
What about parking in Sudbury?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every production asks for different things, so ask your production office for the list and we’ll go through it.
Do numbers include extras?
Yes, include them in numbers. Confirm numbers the day before.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Crew will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
