Location catering around Emsworth
Emsworth is about 2 miles east of Havant, in West Sussex. We cater shoots of every size in Emsworth. Emsworth is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Emsworth to Southampton (about 20 miles away).
For crew arriving by train, Emsworth has its own station, Emsworth station. Nearby historic houses include Warblington Castle (1.3 miles west). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. With the sea within about 6 miles, coastal shoots need a sheltered base, so plan where crew will eat.
We cater shoots across the PO10 postcode area. Your shoot could be at a house on High Street, Beacon Square and Seagull Lane or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook.

- You get a check on access and a quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Emsworth questions
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Could you cook in Eames Farm?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you cater for vegans on set?
Add alternatives to suit your crew.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you come to Emsworth?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What about a wrap party?
We do, with lamb or chicken if you like.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your crew will want somewhere dry to eat.
What we serve, dish by dish
