Film set catering in Damerham, slow-roasted on site
On a long shoot day near Damerham, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. For extended shoot days and location shoots, we will put together a menu of a vegan option, salads and rotisserie chicken and more.
Near Damerham, check tracks and ground with locations. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
Step by step

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Damerham
Is Damerham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you come to Damerham?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book our hog roast in Damerham
