How our film set catering works in Green Street
Crew numbers can be large, and carving serves a crowd fast. Rolls or plates, salads and potatoes make a proper lunch. On the menu are halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and salads, and typical bookings are for commercials and music videos and farm and estate locations.
Near Green Street, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
