Film set catering in Addlestone, carved to order
We work with location managers and production offices on where we set up and when. Typical bookings include rural locations and wrap days, serving new potatoes, salads and rotisserie chicken.
Near Addlestone, base may be a field or yard, so ground conditions matter. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Post allergen details at base
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We arrive early and set up at base, roasting through the morning.
Ask for gluten-free rolls.
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What you get with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Fresh carving at the serving station
