Whether it’s seasonal events and anniversaries of the home, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, thinly carved roast pork and new potatoes and more.

Which station is closest to Rush Green?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.

No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Organising for someone else?
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. In Rush Green, December daylight ends around 3:50pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: use our quote form.

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
- The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Clear of bedroom windows
Rush Green 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.
