Event catering near Ruislip
Good event catering in Ruislip comes down to three things: hot food, good timing and a tidy finish. That’s how we work, with a hog roast or a barbecue. Popular choices include beef brisket, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater wakes and gatherings after a funeral and festive parties.
Getting our equipment into a London venue in Ruislip needs a little planning: where we can unload, and how we reach the cooking spot. We’ll take it from there. You will know exactly what’s included before booking.

Choosing caterers near Ruislip
Ruislip is about 12 miles west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Hosts in Ruislip book us for events of all sizes. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London. Our bookings stretch from Ruislip to London (14 miles away).
Parks such as Church Field Gardens typically need council permission for caterers, so check first. Churches such as St Lawrence rarely have room to cook, but a hall or garden nearby typically does.
We bring hog roasts to events all over HA4, HA5, HA6 and UB5 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include High Street, The Uplands and Hawtrey Drive, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. With the B466 and B472 close by, Ruislip is simple for us to get to with the roaster. If your venue is just outside Ruislip, we also cover Hatch End (2 miles north-east), Harrow (3 miles east), Hillingdon (3 miles south-west), Northolt (3 miles south-east) and Greenford (4 miles south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (14 miles east), City of Westminster (12 miles east), Marylebone (12 miles east), Kensington (10 miles south-east), St Pancras (13 miles east) and Shoreditch (15 miles east).
Nearby you’ll also find Heath Robinson Museum (1.5 miles north-east) and St. George's Shopping Centre (3 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Horse Shoe Bay and Northala Fields.
- Local schools include Bishop Ramsey School (less than half a mile north) and Heathfield School (0.9 miles east)
- Pubs nearby include J.J. Moon's pub (within half a mile south-west)
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork so we can plan lamb, chicken or beef
After service, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left to do.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Common questions in Ruislip
What if our house in Ruislip has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Church Field Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.

Share your numbers and we’ll advise.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes. There’s always a vegetarian and a vegan choice.
Is the meat halal?
We don’t. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
How far ahead should we book caterers?
As soon as your date is fixed. But ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you supply china?
We bring plates; china is extra and on request.
Are you a full-service caterer?
We’re a mobile catering company that cooks on site: a hog roast, a barbecue or both, with vegetarian and vegan options. We serve and tidy up.
