- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Fresh carving at the serving station

How our film set catering works in Great Milton
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover most crews, and we provide allergen information for every dish. On the menu are halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater long days on set and location shoots.
Near Great Milton, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Great Milton questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
How far is Great Milton from London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cater in Great Milton?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Do you need much space at base?
Not much: a level area at base.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
We can add chicken, lamb or vegetarian options.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. By late September, sunset near Great Milton is about 7:10pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
