About our film set catering in Kew
Some locations near Kew are a long way from food, so hot food at base matters. Typical bookings include period drama shoots and wrap days, with rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb.
In Kew, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your crew.

Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What affects the price in Kew
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Numbers
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, use our quote form.

Questions from Kew
Can you do a hog roast in Kew Green?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Kew?
Chiswick station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Do you do wrap parties?
We do, with lamb or chicken if you like.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you cater in Kew?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Kew and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
Add alternatives to suit your crew.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for halal if needed
Name a contact for the day.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to deliveries, we are already there when lunch is called. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why Kew hosts choose us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Serving and clearing done for you
- All the equipment comes with us
- A choice of salads and potatoes
See our prices page and what a hog roast costs.
Where the roaster can go in Kew
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- The location manager’s agreement
- Access agreed with locations
- Shelter for crew
As a London location, Kew is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your shoot. Late-September shoots near Kew lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We pack away straight after.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
