Film set catering in Little Kimble, carved to order
On a long shoot day near Little Kimble, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. We serve salads, rotisserie chicken and a vegan option, and typical bookings are for long days on set and unit base lunches.
Near Little Kimble, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.
