If lunch moves, a cooked roast can be held for a while. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for ad shoots and rural locations.
Rural locations near Weston can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How the day works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your shoot. On a winter shoot near Weston, the light goes by about 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
