From Breakfast to Midnight Snacks: How We Cater to Any Schedule

The film and TV production industry never sleeps. Shoots run through early mornings, late nights, and everything in between, demanding a catering service that can keep up with the pace. At Rhubarb Rhubarb Catering, we provide 24/7 catering for film productions, ensuring that cast and crew stay well-fed, energized, and ready to deliver their best performance—no matter the hour.

With round-the-clock catering for shoots, we serve hot breakfasts before sunrise, energizing lunches, hearty dinners, and late-night film set meals to fit any production schedule. Here’s how we adapt our food offering and service to keep up with the demands of film and TV shoots.

1. Breakfast: The Fuel for an Early Start

Early call times are common in film production, and a nutritious, satisfying breakfast is essential to getting the day off to a strong start. Whether served in a studio, on-location, or through a mobile catering unit, our breakfast menus are designed to provide lasting energy without slowing anyone down.

Our Morning Offerings Include:

• Full Cooked Breakfasts – Scrambled eggs, sausages, grilled tomatoes, and wholegrain toast for a classic start.
• Healthy Power Bowls – Fresh fruit, granola, yogurt, and smoothie bowls for a lighter yet energising meal.
• Grab-and-Go Options – Bacon sandwiches, breakfast wraps, and protein-packed overnight oats for those rushing to set.

With flexible catering services for shoots, we ensure breakfast is ready exactly when the crew needs it, no matter how early the call time.

2. Lunchtime: Balancing Nutrition and Comfort

As the production day progresses, a well-balanced, hearty lunch is key to keeping energy levels up and morale high. Long shooting hours require meals that are nutritionally rich but not too heavy, ensuring cast and crew can stay focused without feeling sluggish.

What’s on Our Lunch Menu?

• High-Protein Power Meals – Grilled chicken, quinoa salads, roasted vegetables, and lean beef dishes for sustained energy.
• Light & Fresh Options – Vegan buddha bowls, sushi platters, and Mediterranean mezze for a nutritious midday boost.
• Hearty Classics – Pasta dishes, curries, and comforting stews to keep the crew satisfied on long shoots.

We ensure catering for long production days is adaptable, meaning we can serve lunch in multiple waves to match staggered crew schedules and ensure no one is left hungry.

3. Dinner Service: A Hot Meal After a Long Day

When a shoot extends into the evening, crew members need a hearty, fulfilling dinner that helps them power through the final scenes of the day. A well-planned dinner menu keeps morale high and helps production stay on track.

Our Dinner Options Include:

• BBQ & Grilled Specialties – Flame-grilled chicken, ribs, and plant-based burgers served with seasonal sides.
• Slow-Cooked Comfort Dishes – Hearty beef bourguignon, vegan chili, or rich risottos to warm and nourish.
• Global-Inspired Street Food – Freshly made tacos, Thai curries, and Mediterranean kebabs for variety.

By offering round-the-clock catering for shoots, we make sure that dinner service is just as fresh, hot, and satisfying as breakfast or lunch—no matter how late it’s served.

4. Late-Night Film Set Meals: Fuelling the Night Shift

Night shoots bring unique challenges, and having the right food available at the right time is essential to keeping the crew alert and focused. Instead of heavy, sleep-inducing meals, our late-night film set meals are designed to provide energy without overloading the digestive system.

Our Night Shoot Specialties:

• Tasty & Portable Bites – Fresh wraps, quesadillas, and bao buns for quick yet satisfying late-night meals.
• Comforting Broths & Soups – Light yet warming miso soup, chicken broth, and ramen bowls.
• Sweet Treats & Energy Boosters – Protein bars, fruit platters, and homemade flapjacks to keep energy levels steady.

With 24/7 catering for film productions, we adjust our offerings to match the energy demands of night shoots, ensuring that crew members stay fueled without feeling sluggish.

5. Snacks & Hydration Throughout the Day

Catering isn’t just about meal breaks—on-set snacks and hydration stations play a huge role in keeping the team going. Whether it’s a quick coffee before an intense scene or a mid-afternoon protein bar, we make sure nutritious snacks and drinks are always available.

What We Provide Between Meals:

• Coffee & Tea Stations – Quality hot drinks to keep energy levels up.
• Healthy Snack Bars – Fresh fruit, nuts, and homemade energy bars for quick boosts.
• Hydration Stations – Fresh juices, electrolyte drinks, and infused water for hydration on long shoots.

By offering flexible catering services for shoots, we ensure meals, snacks, and drinks are always within easy reach—no matter the time of day or night.
