Event catering in Ramsgate, cooked on site
We are a mobile catering company: we bring the kitchen to you. For events in Ramsgate, we cook a hog roast, a barbecue or both on site, with our staff serving and clearing. On the menu are beef brisket, rotisserie chicken and beef burgers, and we are regularly asked to cater Fêtes, fairs and school events and christmas parties.
Caterers in Ramsgate get asked for all sorts, and we’re no different: a hog roast for a wedding, a barbecue for a birthday, both for a fête. We just need somewhere level outside. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
What the cooking area needs
We cook outdoors, so the cooking spot is the main thing to plan. Here’s what helps:
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A clear way in from where we park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
