Event catering in Adelphi, cooked on site
Choosing caterers in Adelphi starts with the food. We keep it simple and generous: a carved hog roast, a barbecue, or the two together. We serve hog roast rolls with crackling, salads and beef brisket, and we are often booked for gatherings after a service and community fun days.
In Adelphi, we cater in gardens, yards, playgrounds and office courtyards. London gardens are often compact, so we look for a spot clear of fences and windows. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book.

A hog roast is made for big groups. Tell us about the event and we will quote.

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Running late? Let us know, and we’ll work around it.
For a long event, a hog roast at lunch and a barbecue later can work.
Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Access wide enough for our equipment
- A level, open spot outdoors to cook
- Enough room for people to queue
Adelphi is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

A closer look at the menu

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
