Film set catering for your shoot in Yiewsley

A van can get a crew fed quickly within the lunch break, with no kitchen needed on site. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas, and we are regularly asked to cater lunch at the unit base and music video shoots.

In Yiewsley, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • A queue area clear of trucks
  • A hardstanding spot at the unit base
  • Access checked by locations

Yiewsley 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.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Popular choices

  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Crew lunches
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips

How we price a fish and chip van for the crew

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Numbers
  • Whether a minimum applies

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

To get a price, fill in our quote form. Tell us about your shoot in Yiewsley, and we will check the date and send a price.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Share the base location and route
  • Collect diets and allergies with crew details
  • Agree the waste plan with locations

Supporting artists and visitors can be included in numbers.

Cover near the hatch helps on wet days.

A closer look at the menu

Mushy peas

Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order.

A chip van compared with other options

Compared with sandwiches on set, a chip van gives the crew a proper hot meal. There is 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 you get with us

  • A clear quote before you book
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Classic food your crew already know
  • Bookings across Greater London, including Yiewsley

Planners, venues and businesses

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.

How it works

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your crew can wander over to the hatch once service starts. On a winter shoot near Yiewsley, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
