How our film set catering works in Stroud Green
We need an outdoor spot at base, clear of vehicles and kit, in a position locations are happy with. Whether it is period drama shoots and milestone days on set, we’ll put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and new potatoes.
In Stroud Green, unit bases are frequently in car parks or yards. Locations will arrange our position, frequently with council permission. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
