Planning an event in Crampmoor?
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Film set catering for your shoot in Crampmoor
Wrap parties suit a hog roast too. Typical bookings include milestone days on set and long shoot days, with new potatoes, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
Rural locations near Crampmoor can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Next to shop-bought sandwiches, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
