Nearby historic houses include Buckingham Palace (1.8 miles north-west) and Clarence House (1.9 miles north). If you are shooting at a historic house, the roaster will need a base agreed with the property. For cast and crew travelling by train, the nearest station is Vauxhall station, about 0.6 miles north.
We cover shoots in every part of the SW8, SW9 and SW1P postcode area and the streets around it.

Film set catering in South Lambeth, carved to order
On a long shoot day near South Lambeth, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. On the menu are salads, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater wrap days and crew thank-you days.
In South Lambeth, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

The process

- Share the location details.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
