Film set catering for your shoot in Willesden Green
On a long shoot day, a good hot lunch keeps morale up. We park at the unit base and cook to order. Typical bookings include wrap celebrations and crew treats on long shoot days, serving haddock and chips, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Shoots in Willesden Green often use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. Locations will have the parking arrangements. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
What happens on the day
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your shoot. Winter shoots near Willesden Green chase the light, which goes at about 3:55pm in December, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Get permission for the van from the venue
Getting a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

Can the van come to our wrap?
Yes, it’s a popular wrap. Tell us the details.
How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of meals
- Access and parking
- Any minimum charge
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- A picture of the parking spot
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Rough numbers for adults and children
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Confirm numbers the day before
- Plan bins and waste at base
- Give us a map or what3words for base
- Make sure we can reach locations on the day
We arrive at base in good time and set up, out of the way.
Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
- Lighting for early or late service
- Level, firm ground at base
Willesden Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?

Why book with us
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Classic food your crew already know
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
