How our film set catering works in Waterend
If lunch moves, a cooked roast can be held for a while. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust. We are often asked to cater base catering and farm and estate locations, serving hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and new potatoes.
For a shoot in a place like Waterend, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your crew.

The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
How we price a hog roast for the crew
Things that change the price:
- Access to the cooking area
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The date and time of year
- Time on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or HP14 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Questions from Waterend
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Waterend close to London?
About 35 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. At midsummer, daylight in Waterend lasts until about 9:25pm, which suits an evening wrap at base.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Name a contact for the day
