A hog roast near East Sheen
What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
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.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Rough numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.
About our film set catering in East Sheen
Some locations near East Sheen are a long way from food, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. For long days on set and music video days, we can cook a vegan option, salads and spit-roast lamb and more.
In East Sheen, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

Questions from East Sheen
Could you cook in Palewell Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in East Sheen?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
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 will check it with you before booking.
Can you cater for vegans on set?
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We work to your schedule.
Can you get to rural locations?
Send the location and access notes and we will plan the journey.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. At midsummer, daylight in East Sheen lasts until about 9:20pm, which suits an evening wrap at base.
