A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Film set catering in Weyhill, fried fresh
Food is fried to order, so lunch is hot and fresh. For event crews and crew morale days, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips and more.
Near Weyhill, check tracks and ground for the van. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer before you book.
What affects the price in Weyhill
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
- How easy the site is to reach
- How long we serve
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your shoot.

Where the van can park in Weyhill

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Organising for someone else?

Common questions in Weyhill
Do you come out to small places like Weyhill?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Weyhill?
Andover station, about 2.9 miles east of the centre.
Can the van come to base?
Yes, wherever locations agree.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Hampshire. See all areas.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Why choose film set catering in Weyhill?
It suits short shoots without a full catering unit.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:
- Fashion shoots on location
- Crew treats on long shoot days
- Seaside and period locations
- Commercials and music videos
Crew coming by rail can use the station: Andover station is about 2.9 miles away.
Before you book anyone
- What the van needs: space, access, power
- The deposit and payment dates
- Whether there is a minimum
- When final numbers are due
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A full location catering unit suits long shoots with three meals a day. A chip van suits short shoots and treat days. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. In December, daylight in Weyhill ends around 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
