How our film set catering works in Kingsey
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover most crews, and we provide allergen information for every dish. We serve salads, new potatoes and halloumi skewers, and we’re often booked for long shoot days and milestone days on set.

How we price a hog roast for the crew
We work out each quote from:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Roughly how many people
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Every shoot is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote: use our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.

The process
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your crew, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In December, daylight in Kingsey ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
Getting ready for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Send final numbers in good time
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
