Can a compact craft setup really serve 400 crew without long queues? Using our experience on The Witcher, this guide explains what actually determines capacity, from service points and staffing to van organisation, stock replenishment and contingency planning.

Choosing a coffee van for your London film shoot starts with a few practical questions. Can it get into the space? How close will it be to crew? What does it need to start serving? And will the setup cope when several departments arrive at once?

We’ve been providing film set craft services in London and across the UK since 2009.

Here’s what to check before you book.

The best craft setup isn’t necessarily the biggest, the closest or the most obvious. Sometimes it’s a van. Sometimes it’s two service points. Sometimes it isn’t a vehicle at all. The useful bit is having enough visibility to work this out before we arrive on set.

When it comes to production, every detail matters. For the craft service team on Netflix’s The Diplomat, Season 2 was no exception. This isn’t just about coffee and snacks—it’s about creating an experience that fuels productivity and supports the needs of a discerning cast and crew. From London to the remote landscapes of Loch Fyne, here’s how our team delivered excellence, one mouthful at a time.
