How film set catering works in Slough

There are options for crew who do not eat pork, with allergen details for everything. We’re frequently asked to cater long shoot days and location days, with new potatoes, a vegan option and hog roast rolls.

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve.

Shooting in Slough: unit bases

Across Slough, bases range from car parks to farmyards. Send us the route.

Slough: Crew coming by rail can use the station: the nearest station is Slough station, about 0.7 miles east. Among the historic houses close to Slough are Windsor Castle (2.1 miles south) and Dorney Court (2.7 miles west). Period locations like these generally keep catering well away from the house, so agree the base early. At midsummer, daylight in Slough lasts until about 9:25pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
