Film set catering in Littleton, carved to order
On a long shoot day near Littleton, 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. Typical bookings include location days and music video days, serving hog roast rolls, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
For a shoot in a place like Littleton, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Served at the time you choose
- All the equipment comes with us

About the food

Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
