About our film set catering in Uffington
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous. We are often asked to cater shoots on location and crew thank-you days, serving a vegan option, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
Rural locations near Uffington can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Timings are planned around your shoot, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Planning for dietary needs
Some crew will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Count crew needing an alternative
A cooked roast can wait; just let us know.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with ordering in, a hog roast at base is ready on the call. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- All the equipment comes with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew
- A clear quote with everything listed

Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Uffington
Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Uffington from London?
Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about a wrap party?
We do. Send us the details.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

When you get in touch, please mention:
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the cooking area
