Film set catering in Wisborough Green
How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Crew will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. At midsummer, Wisborough Green has light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

The van needs level, firm ground at the unit base, and a route the van can manage. Whether it is unit base lunches and event crews, we will put together a menu of sausage and chips, cod and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
Rural locations near Wisborough Green can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Everything is fried fresh at your shoot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your crew instead.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Wisborough Green
What’s the nearest station to Wisborough Green?
Billingshurst station, about 2.5 miles east of the centre.
Is Wisborough Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you have documents for productions?
Tell us what the production needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you go on a lawn or field?

Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
We can. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we’ll adjust where possible.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
