About our film set catering in Fickleshole
Wrap parties suit a hog roast too, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. On the menu are a vegan option, spit-roast lamb and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for wrap parties and location shoots.
Near Fickleshole, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Fickleshole hosts choose us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
