About our film set catering in Chislehurst
Crews in Chislehurst work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. For end-of-shoot wraps and long shoot days, we can cook spit-roast lamb, salads and a vegan option for your crew.
Shoots in Chislehurst often use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. Locations will arrange our position, often with council permission. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Questions from Chislehurst
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What’s the nearest station to Chislehurst?
Chislehurst station, about 0.7 miles south-west of the centre.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
What affects the price in Chislehurst
We do not use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. What matters most:
- How many people are eating
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The date and time of year
- Site access
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Which meats and sides you’d like

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. Summer shoots near Chislehurst have light until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
