Film set catering in Quarrendon Estate, carved to order
We need an outdoor spot at base, clear of vehicles and kit, in a position locations are happy with. Popular choices include hog roast rolls, new potatoes and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater wrap days and period locations.
Around Quarrendon Estate, locations can be rural. Tell us about the route to base. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

About the food

Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
