Film set catering for your shoot in Wormshill
Some locations near Wormshill are a long way from food, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. We serve halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and a vegan option, and typical bookings are for extended shoot days and lunch at base.
Near Wormshill, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. Late-September shoots near Wormshill lose the light at about 7:00pm, so plan lights for evening service.

Getting ready for the day
