Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Long shoots generally need a full catering unit. A van is great for short jobs and crew treats. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

What happens on the day
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. In December, daylight in Winkfield Street ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, use our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
