Event catering in Slough
About our event catering in Slough
We’re a mobile catering company: we bring the kitchen to you. For events in Slough, we cook a hog roast, a barbecue or both on site, and our team serves and tidies up. On the menu are pulled pork, hog roast rolls with crackling and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater festive parties and wakes.
Some venues in Slough only allow approved caterers, so check before you book. Private gardens and clubs rarely have that problem. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Ask about allergies and diets when guests reply
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
Our chef cooks and our staff serve, so service stays steady.
Ask for both menus for a long day, such as a wedding with evening guests.
Event catering in Slough: what to know
Slough is about 22 miles west of London, in Slough. We are happy to travel to Slough for events. We cater all 31 towns and villages across Slough, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 17 miles away.
Planning an event in Herschel Park? Any cooking there needs the landowner’s permission, usually the council’s. Schools such as Herschel Grammar School frequently need caterers for summer fairs and sports days.
We cater events across the SL1, SL3, SL2 and SL6 postcode area. Local streets include High Street, Station Road and London Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Being close to the A4 and A332, Slough is easy for us to reach with the roaster. Other places close to Slough we cover include Windsor (3 miles south), Maidenhead (5 miles west), Egham (6 miles south-east), Beaconsfield (7 miles north) and Hillingdon (7 miles east).
Other landmarks nearby include Windsor Castle (2.1 miles south) and Municipal Borough of Slough (0.7 miles south-east). The countryside around Slough includes Taplow Lake and Burnham Beeches.
- Local schools include The Godolphin Junior Academy (0.6 miles north) and Westgate School (0.9 miles west)
- Local pubs include The Moon and Spoon pub (0.6 miles south-east)
What else we do in Slough
What catering costs
Your quote depends on:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
- Whether you want china
- How many people are eating
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Any venue rules
- Your menu choices
- Allergies we should know about
- Your date and serving time
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
How the day works
We arrive with everything we need to cook and serve, and we set up where we agreed with you. Then we cook to your timings. In December, sunset in Slough is about 3:55pm, so think about lights and shelter for guests.
- Tell us about the event: what it is, when and where.
- You get a menu suggestion and a price.
- We confirm the cooking spot with you or the venue.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and go.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Let us know about tight access
- Name a contact for the day
How to get a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
