Barns Green questions
How far is Barns Green from London?
About 35 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Barns Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do you come to Barns Green?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Can you cater our wrap?
Of course. Send us the details.
Do you work to set times?
Yes. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we will be ready.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your crew will want somewhere dry to eat.

From commercials to long-form drama, we work to your schedule. We serve a vegan option, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for countryside locations and crew thank-you days.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Label the alternatives clearly

- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Halal isn’t offered
If lunch moves, we hold the roast a little; just let us know.

Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
