Fresh fish and chips in Tower Hill
Film set catering for your shoot in Tower Hill
A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, without needing a kitchen on location. We’re frequently asked to cater location filming and ad shoots, with sausage and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
For a shoot in a place like Tower Hill, tracks and soft ground need checking. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
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.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Send the unit base address and directions
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Agree the waste plan with locations
We clear up quickly after lunch.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
Tower Hill questions
Which station is closest to Tower Hill?
Christs Hospital station, about 0.9 miles west of the centre.
Could you trade in Warnham Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can the van come to our wrap?
Yes, and crews love it. Send us the date and place.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Tower Hill.

Step by step
We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Light in Tower Hill lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- First, tell us about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
