Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, because every shoot is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- Travel to Segensworth
- Season and day of the week

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

How our film set catering works in Segensworth
Crews in Segensworth 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. Popular choices include hog roast rolls, salads and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater historic house shoots and ad shoots.
Rural locations near Segensworth can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Timings are planned around your shoot, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
