A hog roast near Leckhampstead
Film set catering for your shoot in Leckhampstead
On a long shoot day near Leckhampstead, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. Whether it is location days and crew thank-you days, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, a vegan option and salads for your crew.
Near Leckhampstead, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
