About our film set catering in Lamport
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. Typical bookings include base catering and rural locations, serving rotisserie chicken, salads and hog roast rolls.
For a shoot in a place like Lamport, tracks and soft ground need checking. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. By late September, sunset near Lamport is about 7:10pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
