Film set catering in Tingewick, fried fresh
A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, with no kitchen needed on site. We serve pie and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips, and we’re often booked for wrap parties and lunch at the unit base.
Near Tingewick, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. We cook inside the van, right where your crew are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
What the van needs
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you. The main points are:
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- Space in front of the hatch
- Clear of the shot and sound
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
