About our film set catering in Ladywell
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. For period locations and music video days, we can cook a vegan option, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
Shoots in Ladywell frequently use streets, yards and car parks as unit bases. The location manager will agree where we set up, frequently with council permission. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Crew catering near Ladywell
Ladywell is about 1 mile south-east of New Cross, in Greater London. We bring a hog roast for the crew to shoots anywhere in Ladywell, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. Ladywell is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater.
Within reach of Ladywell are historic houses such as Queen's House (2 miles north) and Eltham Palace (2.8 miles east). Period locations like these normally keep catering well away from the house, so agree the base early.
Here we cover the SE13, SE6 and SE4 postcode area, so your shoot can be anywhere in it. Your shoot could be at a house on Veda Road, Roxley Road and Honley Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Close by, we cover shoots in Lewisham (1 mile north-east), Crofton Park (1 mile west), Hither Green (1 mile east), Brockley (1 mile west) and Catford (1 mile south). Within a short drive, we also cover London (5 miles north-west), City of Westminster (7 miles north-west), Marylebone (7 miles north-west), Kensington (9 miles west), St Pancras (7 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (6 miles north-west).

- Other local spots include Nunhead (1.9 miles north-west)
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
At the end of a shoot, a hog roast feels like a reward. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Served at the time you choose
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
