Film set catering in Ewell, carved to order
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, in a position locations are happy with. Whether it’s shoots on location and end-of-shoot wraps, we can cook spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.
In Ewell, send us the base location. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
How the day works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your crew, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Ewell is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
A cooked roast can wait; just let us know.
Wrap parties can run into the evening, tell us about lighting at base.
For event organisers in Ewell
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- Flat ground at the unit base
- A contact in production
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
