A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with sandwiches on set, hot fish and chips is a real lunch. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
What you get with us
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Hot food handed straight over
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- No surprises in your quote
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a spot will not work. The main points are:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Crew lunches
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
About the food
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Confirm numbers the day before
- Name a contact in the production office
We arrive at base in good time and set up.
Tables or a marquee at base make lunch comfortable.
