What else we do in Shoreham-by-Sea
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Request thin slices
- Count families and staff too
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
We set up under cover in the grounds, following the home’s procedures.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late May in Shoreham-by-Sea has light until about 8:50pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
