Event catering in Petersfield, cooked on site
Every menu has vegetarian and vegan options: halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Lamb, chicken and beef options help when some guests don’t eat pork. We’re frequently asked to cater gatherings after a service and garden parties, with pulled pork, beef burgers and spit-roast lamb.
In Petersfield, plenty of our bookings are garden parties at home, and our catering means nobody in the family is stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access to the garden. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How the day works
On the day, we arrive in good time and set up under cover on the agreed spot. 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 Petersfield 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.
