Mobile catering for any location, any terrain

Salt Wind Catering runs a fully self-contained mobile kitchen out of Redruth, Cornwall. Gas, charcoal, generators, water, refrigeration and waste, all on the unit. We regularly set up on the kind of ground Cornwall is filmed on, clifftops, moorland, beaches and tight farm tracks, and confirm access and pitch space at recce so the unit gets where it needs to be.

We work shoots that range from two-person drone crews on a clifftop to 200-strong agricultural show days. Commercial brand shoots, remote-venue weddings, festival back-of-house, charity walks, off-grid farm events, the unit and the team scale to fit.

Who books location catering

If your venue is a field, a clifftop, a moor or a beach: this page is the right page.

Drone & commercial crews

Small fast-moving units on coastal or moorland shoots. Hot food held ready, fast service, minimal footprint.

Brand shoots

Lookbook, lifestyle and product shoots at remote locations across Cornwall and Devon. Crew catering on the day, easy to hide from frame.

Remote-venue weddings

Marquees in fields, farm weddings, clifftop ceremonies. No kitchen at the venue is fine. We bring everything.

Agricultural shows

Field events, county shows, farming days. Food served on site pulls a crowd and feeds at scale: paella and BBQ cooked live, hog roast carved.

Off-grid corporate

Outdoor team-build days, conservation work parties, charity walks. Hot food at the right point in the day, anywhere on the route.

Festival back-of-house

Crew and artist catering for small-to-mid festival operations across the South West. Discreet pitch, scheduled service rounds.

Services that work off-grid

All four formats are fully self-contained and ideal for remote sites.

Hog roast

Cornish pork joints slow-smoked over charcoal for up to 16 hours in our own kitchen. Crackling, fresh rolls, apple sauce, sides.

Charcoal BBQ

Real charcoal grilling at your site. Multiple proteins, salads, sides, sauces.

Giant pan

Paella, curry or tagine cooked in front of the crowd. Cost-effective at scale.

Street food

Live cooked street food formats: flatbreads, loaded dirty fries, nachos.

What we do not provide: a licensed bar or alcohol service, tableware/crockery hire, or front-of-house waiting staff. Cook team only, we cook, serve from the unit and pack down (hot and soft drinks can be included with your catering).

Television commercial

Academy Films

Charlie Bigham’s TVC, Cadgwith Cove

  • 50 crew
  • Cadgwith Cove (the Lizard, Cornwall)

A one-day television commercial for Charlie Bigham’s, produced by Academy Films, shot in Cadgwith Cove on the Lizard. Fifty crew, and nowhere to park a unit at the cove: the crew left their cars at the top of the hill and walked down. Salt Wind Catering pitched a self-contained mobile kitchen on the recreation ground at Ruan Minor, about 800 metres above the cove, cooking before sunrise, and drove every service down the lane to the cove in our van, hot-boxed, so the crew never left the location to eat. The production first asked for a food truck; what the job needed was a kitchen that could work where a truck could not.

Location shoot

Locations Wales

FatFace

  • 23 crew, plus the models
  • Llandovery (Carmarthenshire), Llyn y Fan Fach (Bannau Brycheiniog)

Two-day location shoot high in the Welsh mountains for FatFace, 23 crew plus the models, fed at two remote sites in Carmarthenshire and Bannau Brycheiniog, the second of them only reachable by 4x4. No venue, no mains power, no water and no hookup at either. Salt Wind Catering travelled up from Cornwall fully self-contained and worked to the call sheet to the minute: on location for a 07:00 catering pre-call, a full hour before the 08:00 unit call, both days. Rolling hot breakfast at 08:30 as the crew came off the transit run, a hot lunch served on location in the one-hour window at 13:15, craft table restocked at both breaks, and tea and filtered coffee running from pre-call to an 18:00 wrap.
