Here’s what affects the price:
- How many people are eating
- Season and day of the week
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china

Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Your menu choices
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like

Film set catering for your shoot in Steep
Whatever the production, we work to your schedule. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for farm and estate locations and wrap parties.
Near Steep, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We pack away straight after service.

- A safe distance from kit
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
At the end of a shoot, it is a relaxed way to finish. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
