Film set catering across West Berkshire

On a long shoot day near West Berkshire, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include crew appreciation lunches and period drama shoots, with a vegan option, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.

Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away.

Film and TV across West Berkshire

In West Berkshire’s towns, unit bases are often car parks; in its villages, fields and farmyards. Send us the route. Parts of West Berkshire are within a few miles of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles.

Newbury: Within reach of Newbury are historic houses such as Shaw House (1 mile north) and Benham Park (2 miles west). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. Newbury is on or near the A4 and A339, good for unit base access. Because the roast starts early, and in December Newbury is dark by about 4:00pm.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. What matters most:

The journey to the venue
The serving time and how long we’re on site
The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The date and time of year

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What to tell us

Here’s what we’ll ask:

Which meats and sides you’d like
Where the event is
What the outdoor space is like
Rough numbers

Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
