Film set catering in Surrey: what to expect

Schedules move, and a slow roast copes. Name a contact in production and we’ll fit around changes. Typical bookings include period locations and music video days, serving halloumi skewers, salads and new potatoes.

From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your shoot.

  1. Production sends us the location and call times.
  2. We check access to base and quote.
  3. The roast starts early.
  4. We serve when lunch is called.
  5. We clear our spot.

Around Guildford

Bookings here are frequently close to Surrey Maths School, Sandfield Primary School and Guildford High School. Nearby too are Church of St John the Evangelist (less than half a mile east), Stoke Park (within half a mile east) and The King's Head pub (under half a mile south-east). For guests coming by rail, the closest station is London Road (Guildford) station, roughly 0.6 miles south-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Guildford Castle (0.9 miles south) and Guildford House (0.8 miles south). Within reach you will find Silent Pool and Pewley Hill.

Crew catering across Surrey

In Surrey’s towns, unit bases are often car parks; in its villages, fields and farmyards. Send us the route. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within easy reach of places across Surrey, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles.

Guildford: Within reach of Guildford are historic houses such as Guildford Castle (0.9 miles south) and Loseley Park (2.6 miles south-west). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. For cast and crew travelling by train, London Road (Guildford) station is about 0.6 miles away. At midsummer, daylight in Guildford lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.

Planning the cooking spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • A safe distance from kit
  • A contact in production
  • Access agreed with locations

Planners, venues and businesses

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How dietary needs are handled
  • When they arrive and when the food will be ready
  • Whether travel is included
  • Payment terms and cancellation policy

Planning for dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Plan separately for halal if needed
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Tell us who doesn’t eat pork

We pack away straight after service.

For an evening wrap, tell us about lighting at base.

Why a hog roast works

It feeds a crew quickly once carving starts.

Hosts in Surrey book us for small gatherings and big outdoor days alike. For example:

  • Milestone days on set
  • Commercials and music videos
  • Long shoot days
  • Rural locations

Common questions in Surrey

Will there be enough to go round?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

What do people get?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

What happens in bad weather?

Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Can you work around our timings?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Can you cater our wrap?

Of course. Tell us the date and location.

Do you have documents for locations?

Every production is different; share your list and we’ll respond.

Do you work to set times?

We plan the roast to your lunch call, and we’ll adjust where we can.
