Newington Butts questions
Could you cook in Newington Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in Newington Butts has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Do you do small parties?
Tell us your numbers and we will suggest what works. A barbecue can suit smaller groups well.
Which occasions do you cover?
All sorts: from garden parties to corporate days. Let us know the occasion.
What if our venue is indoors?
The cooking happens outside; serving can normally be inside a hall, barn or marquee. Ask your venue what they allow.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Can you cater in Newington Butts?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Newington Butts and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
