Film set catering in Hyde End, slow-roasted on site
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. For end-of-shoot wraps and period locations, we can cook halloumi skewers, new potatoes and salads.
For a shoot in a place like Hyde End, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
We follow location rules on vehicles and timings.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
