Film set catering for your shoot in Nether Wallop
On a long shoot day near Nether Wallop, 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. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater farm and estate locations and long shoot days.
Rural locations near Nether Wallop can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
Questions from Nether Wallop
How far is Nether Wallop from London?
Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London.
Is Nether Wallop too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What paperwork do you provide?
