A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Film set catering in Milland, slow-roasted on site
From commercials to long-form drama, we fit around the call sheet. For crew thank-you days and long days on set, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and a vegan option and more.
Near Milland, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal is not offered
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
Ask for gluten-free rolls.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- Sign-off from the location
- Access agreed with locations
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

For event organisers in Milland
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
