Film set catering in Edgehill, carved to order
On a long shoot day near Edgehill, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast suits a unit base: we roast from early and carve on the call. Typical bookings include long shoot days and rural locations, with salads, rotisserie chicken and a vegan option.
Rural locations near Edgehill can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your crew.

What a hog roast costs
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Site access

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Organising for someone else?
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
