Questions from Winkfield Row

Martins Heron station, about 1.6 miles south-west of the centre.
How far is Winkfield Row from London?
About 27 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you cater wrap parties?
Yes, it is a popular wrap. Send us the date and place.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Clear of the shot and sound
- A lit spot for dark mornings or evenings

Other occasions in Winkfield Row
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Some locations have nowhere to buy food. A van brings lunch to base. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Hot food handed straight over
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
Read how we price or the cost guide.
What affects the price in Winkfield Row
These are the factors that matter most:
- The length of service
- The number of meals
- Whether a minimum applies
- The day of the week
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A photo of the space and the way in

Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. Winter shoots near Winkfield Row chase the light, which goes at about 3:55pm in December, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- First, tell us about your shoot.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for the crew.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us a contact for the day
Getting a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
