How our film set catering works in Langrish
Crews in Langrish work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. We are frequently asked to cater music video days and milestone days on set, with salads, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.
Near Langrish, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- A route for our vehicle
- A level area at base
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Langrish

Compared with a barbecue, carving is quicker for big numbers. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why book with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
