Moulsford: your questions answered
Is Moulsford too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your crew will want somewhere dry to eat.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you serve at our lunch call?
Yes. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we’ll adjust where we can.
Can you get to rural locations?
Normally, with good directions and access details. Let us know about the route.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
About our film set catering in Moulsford
If lunch moves, a cooked roast can be held for a while. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust. On the menu are halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for long shoot days and period locations.
Rural locations near Moulsford can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Crockery choices
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Before you choose a spot

- A level area at base
- A route for our vehicle
