Film set catering for your shoot in Adisham

Common questions in Adisham
Is Adisham too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to Adisham?
Adisham has its own station: Adisham station.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Do you need much space at base?
Typically, if there is a level, open spot for the roaster under cover. We will agree it with your location manager.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
