How our film set catering works in The Warren
On a long shoot day near The Warren, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. We serve new potatoes, salads and halloumi skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater long days on set and wrap days.
For a location shoot near The Warren, base might be in a field or farmyard, so ground conditions matter. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, slowly, over several hours.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, often with mint sauce.
