For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Film set catering in Frieth, carved to order
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover most crews, and we provide allergen information for every dish. On the menu are hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and we’re frequently booked for shoots on location and unit base lunches.
For a shoot in a place like Frieth, tracks and soft ground need checking. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Plan separately for halal if needed
We serve quickly on the call.
Wrap parties can run into the evening.

- Crackling for everyone who wants it
See our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. Late-September shoots near Frieth lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
Before we arrive
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
