Film set catering for your shoot in Queensbury
Crews in Queensbury work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast suits a unit base: we roast from early and carve on the call. Whether it is shoots on location and wrap parties, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and salads.
In Queensbury, unit bases are frequently in car parks or yards. Locations will arrange our position, frequently with council permission. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, low and slow, for hours.

Common questions in Queensbury
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Queensbury?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Roe Green Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What about a wrap party?
We do.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater in Queensbury?
Yes, Queensbury is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
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 pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
What affects the price in Queensbury
We work out each quote from:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
- Roughly how many people
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Post allergen details at base
Give us one contact in production, typically locations or the production office.
Sides make a proper lunch.
