How our event catering works in Selsey
Some caterers need a kitchen; we bring our own cooking to you. That means almost any outdoor space in Selsey can work. Whether it is christmas parties and milestone birthdays, we can cook hog roast rolls with crackling, beef brisket and halloumi skewers and more.
Caterers in Selsey get asked for all sorts, and we’re no different: hog roast or BBQ, depending on the occasion. All we need is a level spot outdoors to cook. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book.

Selsey: your questions answered
Is Selsey close to London?
About 61 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard, with china available on request, quoted separately.
Do you cater large events?
Yes. A hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and for big events many hosts add a barbecue. Give us rough numbers and the serving time and we’ll plan the service.
What sort of catering do you do?
We cook on site at your event: a hog roast, a barbecue or both, with vegetarian and vegan options. Our staff serve and clear.
Which occasions do you cover?
Most kinds: weddings, parties, work events, community events and more. Let us know the occasion.
Do you offer halal meat?
No, we don’t offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Our staff keep the serving table tidy through service, so it looks as good at the end as at the start.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.

How we compare with other caterers
Compared with a buffet caterer, our food comes hot, straight from the roaster or grill, and nothing sits out for hours. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

How the day works
We set up under cover where we agreed, well before food time. A hog roast cooks for hours before serving; a barbecue cooks through service. In Selsey, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. By late December, sunset is about 4:00pm.
