- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We roast through the morning.
- We serve inside or out.
- We clear away quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Honor Oak is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Honor Oak
Here’s what affects the price:
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Plates or china
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Which meats and sides you’d like
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count families and staff too
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We clear away quietly.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
