Fresh fish and chips in West End Green

Film set catering in West End Green, fried fresh

Food is fried to order, so it’s hot when the break is called. On the menu are pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater wrap celebrations and outside broadcasts.

For a shoot in a place like West End Green, tracks and soft ground need checking. We cook inside the van, right where your crew are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

For planners, venues and organisers

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in West End Green? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Looking after everyone

Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Agree how the base is left
  • Give us a contact for call-time changes
  • Send the unit base address and directions
  • Collect diets and allergies with crew details

We work to the lunch time on the call sheet, with a contact for changes.

Tables or a marquee at base make lunch comfortable.

West End Green: your questions answered

Is West End Green too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What’s the nearest station to West End Green?

Bramley (Hants) station, about 1.6 miles south-west of the centre.

Where do you take the van?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including West End Green.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your shoot and we will send a quote.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

Can you adjust to schedule changes?

Schedules move, and we plan for it. Keep us updated and we’ll adapt.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Some locations have nowhere to buy food. The van solves that. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.

Why choose film set catering in West End Green?

  • Treat days on a long shoot
  • Shoots on location
  • Wrap parties
  • Crew lunches at base

Nearby historic houses include Stratfield Saye House (2 miles east) and The Vyne (3.5 miles south-west). Period locations like these generally keep vehicles well away from the house, so agree the base early.

  • The deposit and payment dates

Choosing a fish and chip van

How the day works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Crew normally gather round the hatch once service starts. On a winter shoot near West End Green, the light goes by about 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. We start with the location, call times and crew numbers.
  2. We check the route and the unit base and send a price.
  3. We agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
  4. We set up at the unit base and fry to order for the lunch break.
  5. We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Share the timings for the day

What affects the price in West End Green

  • The menu and how many choices
  • The date and time of year

The menu, dish by dish

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
  • Away from the shooting area’s sound
  • A hardstanding spot at the unit base

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Crew lunches
