Film set catering in Loosley Row, slow-roasted on site
Crews can be big, and carving feeds plenty of people quickly. Add sides for a full meal. For ad shoots and period drama shoots, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, salads and spit-roast lamb for your crew.
Rural locations near Loosley Row can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
