Event catering in Little Venice, served hot
Choosing caterers in Little Venice starts with the food. Ours is simple and generous: slow-roasted pork carved into rolls, or a barbecue with burgers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. We’re often asked to cater film and TV crews and weddings and evening receptions, with pulled pork, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls with crackling.
In Little Venice, we cater in gardens, yards, playgrounds and office courtyards. With neighbours close by, we pick a spot that keeps smoke and heat away from windows. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Step by step
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, so we plan our arrival around your serving time. Evening events in Little Venice need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event: what it is, when and where.
- You get a menu suggestion and a price.
- We agree where we’ll cook.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We pack away and go.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
We bring the cooking equipment with us, so there’s nothing for you to find or hire for the cooking.

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What we cook
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children typically like it too.
