Film set catering for your shoot in Froyle
We work with location managers and production offices on where we set up and when for shoots around Froyle. Whether it’s end-of-shoot wraps and music video days, we can cook hog roast rolls, a vegan option and spit-roast lamb.
Rural locations near Froyle can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
