Film set catering in Well Hall
Film set catering in Well Hall, cooked to order
The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a clear route in. We’re often asked to cater location shoots and lunch at the unit base, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
Shoots in Well Hall frequently use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. Locations will have the parking arrangements. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Your choice of menu
- How easy the site is to reach
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The number of meals
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. 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
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The venue or postcode
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Expected numbers
- A picture of where the van would go
To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your shoot, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
How it works
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your crew can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. Long summer days in Well Hall, with light until about 9:20pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

What the van needs
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. What matters most:
- Lighting for early or late service
- Permission for the van at base
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
As a London location, Well Hall is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Mushy peas
- Crew lunches
- Haddock and chips

Why choose a fish and chip van in Well Hall?
Takeaway rarely reaches a location hot. The van cooks on site. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
Why Well Hall hosts choose us
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Quick service from the hatch
- Rain does not stop the fryers

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
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.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Flag any coeliac crew
- Confirm numbers the day before
We take our used oil and waste with us.
A quick pre-order speeds things up.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Well Hall questions
What’s the nearest station to Well Hall?
Well Hall has its own station: Eltham station.
Can the van park in Eltham Common?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for crew.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Can you park at the unit base?
Yes, on level ground at base.
