Film set catering for your shoot in Wymering

Some locations near Wymering are a long way from food, so hot food at base matters. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater long days on set and ad shoots.

For a location shoot near Wymering, base might be in a field or farmyard, so ground conditions matter. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Wymering for film and TV crews

Wymering is about 3 miles north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. We cover shoots in Wymering. We bring hog roasts to 19 places across Portsmouth. We cater events right across the region, from Wymering to Southampton (15 miles away).

Nearby historic houses include Warblington Castle (4.8 miles east). If you are shooting at a historic house, the roaster will need a base agreed with the property. Wymering is on or near the A397, good for unit base access. With the sea within about 5 miles, coastal shoots need a sheltered base.

Anywhere in PO6 and PO2, we can roast on site for your crew. That could mean a shoot in a garden on Dean Road, Deal Road and Park Lane or the roads around them, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. Being close to the A397, Wymering is easy for us to reach with the roaster. For shoots just outside Wymering, we cover Cosham (1 mile south-east), Paulsgrove (1 mile west), Hilsea (1 mile south), Drayton (1 mile east) and Widley (1 mile north-east).

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
