How our film set catering works in Easton
We liaise with your locations and production team on access, base layout and timings for shoots around Easton. On the menu are hog roast rolls, salads and halloumi skewers, and we are often booked for base catering and extended shoot days.
Near Easton, check tracks and ground with locations. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Label the alternatives clearly
We get to base first thing, roasting through the morning.
China crockery is available on request.
The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. On a winter shoot near Easton, the light goes by about 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check the route and send a price.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Send final numbers in good time

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Easton
What’s the nearest station to Easton?
Winchester station, about 2.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Easton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you cater our wrap?
We do.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Do you go to remote locations?
Send the location and access notes and we’ll plan the journey.
Do you need much space at base?
Not much: a level area at base.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Organising for someone else?
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
