Your questions about caterers in Harrow
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Harrow?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Which station is closest to Harrow?
The closest is Harrow-on-the-Hill station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
Can you do halal?
No. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.
Is it just hog roast?
Not at all: there is a full barbecue menu as well.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Can you feed a big crowd?
A hog roast is made for big groups. Tell us about the event and we will quote.
Do you come to Harrow?
Yes, Harrow is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Event catering near Harrow
From weddings to wakes and fêtes to film sets in Harrow: we have planned menus for all of them. Tell us what the event is and we will suggest the food. On the menu are beef burgers, beef brisket and hog roast rolls with crackling, and typical bookings are for festive parties and staff days and client events.
In Harrow, we cater in gardens, yards, playgrounds and office courtyards. London gardens are often compact, so we look for a spot clear of fences and windows. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Catering an event in Harrow
Harrow is in Greater London. Harrow and the surrounding area are covered for events. Harrow is one of 764 places in Greater London where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Harrow to London (about 12 miles away).
Churches such as Church of St Peter rarely have room to cook, but a hall or garden nearby usually does. Planning an event in Northwick Park? Any cooking there needs the landowner’s permission, typically the council’s.
Anywhere in HA2, HA1, UB5 and HA3, we can roast on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From High Street, London Road and Perceval Square or a nearby road, we can set up and roast there. Harrow is on the B457 and B458, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Northolt (2 miles south-west), Hatch End (2 miles north-west), Greenford (3 miles south), Ruislip (3 miles west) and Stanmore (3 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (12 miles south-east), City of Westminster (9 miles south-east), Marylebone (10 miles south-east), Kensington (8 miles south-east), St Pancras (11 miles east) and Shoreditch (12 miles east).
A little further out are St. George's Shopping Centre (0.7 miles north-east) and Clementine Churchill Hospital (1 mile south-east). Open spaces near Harrow include Islip Manor Meadows and Northala Fields.
- Nearby schools include Grange Primary School (within half a mile west) and Orley Farm School (0.9 miles south)
- Pubs nearby include Kingsfield Arms (less than half a mile east)
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
Running late? Let us know, and we’ll work around it.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
As a London location, Harrow 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 photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time
- An estimate of numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
Send us the date, the address or HA2 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.

How the day works
With a hog roast, the meat is ready to carve; with a barbecue, it comes straight off the grill. Either way, our staff serve and clear. Winter events in Harrow are dark by about 3:55pm, so think about lights and shelter for guests.
- It starts with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- We recommend a menu and send a clear quote.
- On the day, we set up outdoors under cover.
- We cook and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
How to prepare
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Think about shelter for your guests

How we compare with other caterers
Compared with booking several food vans, one caterer keeps everyone eating together from one menu. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
