Planning a shoot in Peckham
Peckham is about 2 miles south-east of London, in Greater London. From village halls to gardens and fields, shoots around Peckham suit a hog roast. We cover 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Within reach of Peckham are historic houses such as Queen's House (2.6 miles east) and Kingswood House (2.9 miles south). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. The A2215 give trucks and catering a straightforward route to Peckham.
For shoots in SE15, SE14 and SE5, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many crew. We can cater a shoot on streets such as Rye Lane, Relf Road and Mona Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Peckham is on the A2215, which makes the journey straightforward. Nearby, we also cater shoots in Nunhead (1 mile south-east), Telegraph Hill (1 mile south-east), South Bermondsey (1 mile north), Surrey Canal (1 mile north-east) and East Dulwich (1 mile south-west). Further out, we also cater in City of Westminster (5 miles north-west), Marylebone (5 miles north-west), Kensington (6 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles north-west), Shoreditch (4 miles north) and Walthamstow (8 miles north).
A little further out are Southwark Adult Education Institute (under half a mile east) and Surrey Quays Shopping Centre (1.8 miles north). The countryside around Peckham includes St. James's Park Lake and Knight's Hill.
- Schools near Peckham include The St Thomas the Apostle College (within half a mile east) and Southwark Free School (0.7 miles north)
- Nearby, you will find The Kentish Drovers pub (under half a mile north-west)

Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Somewhere for crew to eat if it rains
- A route for our vehicle
- A contact in production
As a London location, Peckham is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Summer shoots near Peckham have light until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

FAQs for Peckham
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Peckham?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
What’s the nearest station to Peckham?
Queens Road Peckham station, in Peckham itself.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you have documents for locations?
Tell us what the production needs, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you work to the call sheet?
That’s exactly how we work, holding the roast if lunch moves.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
