Event catering in Earl's Court, served hot
We cater weddings, parties, staff days and community events across Earl's Court. We adapt the menu to the event, but the approach is the same: cooked on site, served hot, cleared away afterwards. We’re frequently asked to cater weddings and evening receptions and christmas parties, with rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls with crackling and spit-roast lamb.
In a London neighbourhood like Earl's Court, access is the first thing caterers ask about. We cook outdoors, so we need a garden, yard, courtyard or car park with a way in for our equipment. Send us a photo. Every quote lists the menu, staff and what’s included.

How it works
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. For an evening event in Earl's Court, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- 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 pack away and go.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Earl's Court questions
Could you cook in Gwendwr Garden?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Earl's Court?
Earl's Court has its own station: West Brompton station.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Are you a full-service caterer?
We’re a mobile catering company that cooks on site: a hog roast, a barbecue or both, with vegetarian and vegan options. We serve and tidy up.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes. Pass on their details and we will agree the details with them.
Does the venue need a kitchen?
No kitchen needed: all we need is a level spot outdoors with access.
Do you do small parties?
Send us the details and we’ll tell you honestly what fits. For smaller numbers, a barbecue is frequently the best fit.
Which occasions do you cover?
All sorts: from garden parties to corporate days. Let us know the occasion.
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Hog roast, BBQ or something else?
Compared with a buffet caterer, our food comes hot, straight from the roaster or grill. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What catering costs
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Numbers
- Menu choices and extras
- Site access
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Find out who avoids pork for the alternatives
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
On the day, we arrive in good time and set up under cover, on the spot we agreed.
Add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken to a hog roast.

BBQ ribs
For guests who love barbecue, the ribs are frequently the highlight.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Enough room for people to queue
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
As a London location, Earl's Court 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.
