Film set catering in Upper Edmonton, slow-roasted on site
Crew numbers can be large, and carving feeds plenty of people quickly. Rolls or plates, salads and potatoes make a proper lunch. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and new potatoes, and we’re often booked for unit base lunches and period locations.
In Upper Edmonton, access to base can be tight, so send us the route and restrictions. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What affects the price in Upper Edmonton
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Crockery choices
- Menu choices and extras
- Numbers
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Dietary requirements
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
- Which meats and sides you’d like
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your shoot: send us your details through our quote form.
Step by step
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Upper Edmonton ends around 3:50pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day

Common questions in Upper Edmonton
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Upper Edmonton?

- Approval from locations
