Film set catering in West Stoke, slow-roasted on site
Crews in West Stoke work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include crew appreciation lunches and shoots on location, with halloumi skewers, a vegan option and rotisserie chicken.
Rural locations near West Stoke can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The number of people
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December West Stoke is dark by about 4:00pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
