Event catering for Chislehurst
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
We arrive well before food time and set up under cover, where we agreed with you or the venue.
Add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken to a hog roast.
How our event catering works in Chislehurst
Choosing caterers in Chislehurst starts with the food. We keep it simple and generous: slow-roasted pork carved into rolls, or a barbecue with burgers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Typical bookings include residents’ days and birthdays and garden parties, with salads, beef brisket and beef burgers.
Getting our equipment into a London venue in Chislehurst needs a little planning: parking for our vehicle and a route to the cooking spot. We will plan the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Your questions about caterers in Chislehurst
What if our house in Chislehurst has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Chislehurst Common?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How far ahead should we book caterers?
As soon as your date is fixed. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What if our venue is indoors?
The cooking happens outside; serving can generally be inside a hall, barn or marquee. Ask your venue what they allow.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Can you cater in Chislehurst?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
What kind of caterers are you?
We cook on site at your event: hog roast and BBQ menus, with meat-free options. We serve and tidy up.
Does the venue need a kitchen?
Not at all. All the cooking happens outside, under cover, which is why we can cater almost anywhere.
Why choose us as your caterers in Chislehurst?
Next to a sit-down dinner, hog roast and barbecue food keeps things informal, but it can still be served on plates with sides.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
BBQ ribs
BBQ ribs bring a sticky, glazed favourite to the table.
The process
We set up under cover where we agreed, well before food time. A hog roast cooks for hours before serving; a barbecue cooks through service. In December, sunset in Chislehurst is about 3:55pm, so think about lights and shelter for guests.
- Tell us about the event: what it is, when and where.
- We suggest a hog roast, a barbecue or both, and send a quote.
- We confirm the cooking spot with you or the venue.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Send final numbers in good time
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or BR7 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.
Planning help
Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
What the cooking area needs
We cook outdoors, so the cooking spot is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and trees
As a London location, Chislehurst is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: 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.
