About our event catering in Paddington Green
We’re event caterers who cook on site. In Paddington Green, that means a hog roast, a barbecue or both, cooked outdoors under cover at your venue, with our staff serving and clearing. We serve beef brisket, pulled pork and hog roast rolls with crackling, and we are regularly asked to cater community fun days and work events and open days.
For a London event in Paddington Green, tell us about steps, gates and parking: where we can unload, and how we reach the cooking spot. We’ll take it from there. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
All the cooking kit comes with us, so there is nothing for you to find or hire for the cooking.
Ask for both menus for a long day, such as a wedding with evening guests.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Paddington Green questions

We don’t. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.

No: there is a full barbecue menu as well.

Paddington Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Is our catering right for your event?
Compared with a caterer who drops food off, we stay, cook and serve, then clear the serving area. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- A clear quote with everything listed
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Two menus to choose from
- Served at the time you choose
