How event catering works in Greater London

Not every venue in Greater London has a kitchen, and with us it doesn’t need one: we cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you. That makes gardens, fields, car parks and marquees all possible. We are often asked to cater work events and open days and work Christmas parties, serving pulled pork, rotisserie chicken and beef brisket.

We set up where we agreed and keep out of the way, and the event carries on around us.

  1. Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
  2. We suggest a hog roast, a barbecue or both, and send a quote.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot with you or the venue.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Event catering across Greater London

Caterers in Greater London get asked for everything from weddings to wakes. Our answer is hot food cooked on site: a hog roast, a barbecue or both.

London: After a wedding, christening or funeral at a church such as St George the Martyr, we can cater at a hall, home or venue nearby. Nearby historic houses include Mansion House (1 mile north) and Dr Johnson's House (1.2 miles north-west). Estates like these tend to set strict rules for outside caterers, so ask before booking. Around midsummer it stays light in London until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

Space, access and the venue

Gardens, yards, car parks and fields can all work if a few things are right. Check these:

  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
  • A level lawn, patio or hard standing
  • The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer

What catering costs

Here’s what affects the price:

  • The journey to the venue
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Numbers
  • Crockery choices

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Any venue rules
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.
