About our film set catering in Rushmoor
Crews can be big, and carving feeds a lot of people quickly. Rolls or plates, salads and potatoes make a proper lunch. We’re frequently asked to cater commercials and music videos and milestone days on set, serving rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads.
Rural locations near Rushmoor can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.

What affects the price in Rushmoor
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Time on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
