How film set catering works in Windsor and Maidenhead

Whatever the production, we work to your schedule. We’re often asked to cater rural locations and milestone days on set, with spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and salads.

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready.

  1. We start with the location, call times and numbers.
  2. You get a check on access and a quote.
  3. Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
  4. We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot at base.

What you will pay

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Why book our hog roast

  • Planned to your running order
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
