About our film set catering in Tadmarton
Some locations near Tadmarton are a long way from food, so hot food at base matters. Whether it is location shoots and crew appreciation lunches, we can cook spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and halloumi skewers for your crew.
For a shoot in a place like Tadmarton, tracks and soft ground need checking. 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.

- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
