Event catering for Romford
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask about allergies and diets when guests reply
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
The serving area is kept tidy and stocked, so it looks as good at the end as at the start.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.
Event catering near Romford
Our catering does not need a kitchen at the venue: we cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you. So gardens, yards, fields and marquees all work. For weddings and school fairs and sports days, we can cook beef brisket, halloumi skewers and pulled pork and more.
Events in Romford range from back-garden birthdays to office courtyards and school fairs. London gardens are often compact, so we look for a spot clear of fences and windows. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book.

FAQs for Romford
Could you cook in Lodge Farm Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Romford?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do you work with wedding planners and venues?
Yes: we will liaise with the venue on access and set-up.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is crockery included?
Plates are standard. China is available on request.
Which occasions do you cover?
All sorts: weddings, parties, work events, community events and more. Tell us what you are planning.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you feed a big crowd?
Large events suit a hog roast especially well. Send us the details for a quote.
What happens on the day
We work back from when you want to eat: a hog roast needs us there hours ahead, a barbecue a little less. Either way, it’s ready on time. In Romford, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- 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 clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Working with your venue

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Clearance from walls, tents and overhanging branches
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A clear way in from where we park
As a London location, Romford is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Compared with a formal plated meal, our food is relaxed and generous, but it can still be served on plates with sides. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
