Film set catering in Kidbrooke, slow-roasted on site
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, agreed with the location manager. We serve halloumi skewers, a vegan option and spit-roast lamb, and we’re frequently booked for shoots on location and crew thank-you days.
London locations around Kidbrooke can have tight access, so send us the route and restrictions. Timings are planned around your shoot, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Site access
- Numbers
- Distance from us
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

These are the details we need:
- The date and time of the event
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode
- Any venue rules
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Halal isn’t offered
We clear our spot after lunch.
Sides make a proper lunch.
Kidbrooke questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Kidbrooke?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in Eltham Common?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you work to set times?
We plan the roast to your lunch call, and we will be ready.
Do you come to Kidbrooke?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Kidbrooke and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Can you set up at the unit base?
A level outdoor spot clear of trucks and kit, agreed with locations.
The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan crew can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

- Vehicle access to base

The process
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. On a winter shoot near Kidbrooke, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us a contact number for the day
