Event catering in Somers Town, served hot
We always include meat-free choices: halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and barbecue chicken cover guests who don’t eat pork. Whether it is weddings and christmas parties, we will put together a menu of beef brisket, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls with crackling.
Events in Somers Town range from back-garden birthdays to office courtyards and school fairs. With neighbours close by, we pick a spot that keeps smoke and heat away from windows. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Count anyone who does not eat pork so we can plan lamb, chicken or beef
One of us cooks, the others serve, so the queue keeps moving.
Ask for both menus for a long day, such as a wedding with evening guests.
Hog roast, BBQ or something else?
Next to catering it yourself, you get your day back, and the food is in professional hands. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
What we serve, dish by dish
BBQ ribs
Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu; have napkins ready.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
