Aston for film and TV crews
Aston is about 2 miles north-east of Henley-on-Thames, in Oxfordshire. We cater shoots across Aston and nearby. Aston is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Aston to Reading (8 miles away).
Aston is roughly 34 miles from central London, within easy reach for London-based crews. Within reach of Aston are historic houses such as Greenlands (1 mile north-west) and Harleyford Manor (2.6 miles east). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Aston, and locations in protected landscapes often have rules about cooking and vehicles.
For shoots in RG9, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. That could mean a shoot in a garden on Remenham Lane and Aston Ferry Lane, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Neighbouring places where we cater shoots include Mill End (1 mile north), Remenham Hill (1 mile south), Remenham (1 mile west), Medmenham (1 mile east) and Bockmer End (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Thame (14 miles north), Benson (11 miles north-west), Chinnor (10 miles north), Tilehurst (9 miles south-west), Wallingford (12 miles west) and Little Heath (10 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Marlow Community Hospital (4.6 miles east) and Frazer Nash Archives (1.9 miles south-west). Within reach you’ll find Weycock Hill and Hurley Chalk Pit.

A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Step by step
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. Late-September shoots near Aston lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Send final numbers in good time
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
