A chip van near Winchfield
Film set catering in Winchfield, cooked to order
A chip van fits right in at seaside locations. Whether it’s ad shoots and crew lunches at base, we can cook sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips and more.
Near Winchfield, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. We cook inside the van, right where your crew are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. On a winter shoot near Winchfield, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- 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.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
