A hog roast near Bridgemary
Film set catering in Bridgemary, slow-roasted on site
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, agreed with the location manager. For long shoot days and music video days, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, halloumi skewers and a vegan option and more.
For a location shoot near Bridgemary, base might be in a field or farmyard, so ground conditions matter. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Next to shop-bought sandwiches, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Timed around your day
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

Common questions in Bridgemary
How far is Bridgemary from London?
Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What about a wrap party?
Yes, a hog roast suits a relaxed wrap party.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
