Crews can be big, and carving serves a crowd fast. Rolls or plates, salads and potatoes make a proper lunch. We serve hog roast rolls, a vegan option and salads, and typical bookings are for rural locations and long days on set.
Near Fawley, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.
