How our film set catering works in Heathrow
We need an outdoor spot at base, clear of vehicles and kit, agreed with the location manager. Typical bookings include extended shoot days and music video days, serving new potatoes, a vegan option and spit-roast lamb.
Rural locations near Heathrow can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Heathrow is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Give us a contact number for the day

Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Heathrow questions
Is Heathrow too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Can you roast in the rain?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
