Event catering in Buckingham, cooked on site
Choosing caterers in Buckingham starts with the food. We keep it simple and generous: a carved hog roast, a barbecue, or the two together. We’re often asked to cater gatherings after a service and school fairs and sports days, with pulled pork, salads and hog roast rolls with crackling.
Buckingham has halls, clubs, pubs and function venues, as well as plenty of gardens. Wherever there’s room outside to cook, we can work, and we’ll check the venue is happy with an outside caterer. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

The process
We cook outdoors under cover, so a shower won’t stop the food, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. Around midsummer it stays light in Buckingham until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
