Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Room for a serving table and a queue
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- A clear way in from where we park
Battersea 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

How we price your catering
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- Allergies we should know about
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
What happens on the day
We cook outdoors under cover, so a shower will not stop the food, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. Late May in Battersea has light until about 8:50pm, and midsummer until about 9:20pm, which suits garden parties and weddings.
- It starts with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- We suggest a hog roast, a barbecue or both, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up outdoors under cover.
- We cook and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about shelter for your guests

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask about allergies and diets when guests reply
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
After service, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left to do.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
