Catering Services

Here is how this works in practice. We supply film caterers who give on-set meals and craft services for shoots across the Czech Republic. Our caterers run hot breakfast, lunch and dinner, steady craft service, and second meals for late hours, deploying complete mobile kitchens to Barrandov Studios, Prague Studios and locations across Bohemia and Moravia. They serve large global crews — frequently 200 or more — with many serving lines and flexible meal timing. They fit vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher, gluten-free and allergy-specific needs as standard, with menus labelled in Czech and English. Our caterers comply with EU food-hygiene rules and Czech food-safety law, hold the needed trade licences and HACCP records, and are skilled with the access and space constraints of the country's castles and heritage filming sites.

Here is the short of it. Czech food culture gives film caterers a great base to work from. The country's hearty cuisine — svíčková, vepřo-knedlo-zelo, goulash and řízek — gives satisfying sustenance for long shooting days, and the Czech Republic has the world's highest beer consumption per capita, home to Pilsner Urquell, the first pilsner brewed in Plzeň since 1842, and Budweiser Budvar. Prague's cosmopolitan food scene means caterers also produce Italian, Asian and Middle Eastern menus with ease.

Here is the breakdown. Decades of feeding crews on major global shoots at Barrandov Studios have built caterers who know the meal timing, quality standards and service pace foreign studios expect. Catering spend on a Czech production forms part of qualifying spend toward the Czech Film Fund's 20% cash rebates. Our caterers also give sustainable menus built on regional Bohemian and Moravian produce.
