About our film set catering in Medmenham
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous. Whether it’s commercials and music videos and long days on set, we can cook halloumi skewers, a vegan option and salads and more.
For a shoot in a place like Medmenham, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Vehicle access to base
- A safe distance from kit
- A level spot at base for the roaster
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. On a winter shoot near Medmenham, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.

Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
- The number of people
- Distance from us
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- An estimate of numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any venue rules
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans

If lunch moves, we hold the roast a little.
Sides make a proper lunch.
