How our film set catering works in Queens Park
Crews in Queens Park work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. We serve salads, a vegan option and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for unit base lunches and rural locations.
Shoots around Queens Park frequently use houses, farms and lanes. Tell us about the route to base. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you want china
- Site access
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
We arrive early and set up at base, so the roast is ready by lunch.

A closer look at the menu
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way, often with mint sauce.
How the day works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Queens Park ends around 3:55pm.
