How our event catering works in St Luke's
A carved hog roast is the showpiece; a barbecue gives more variety. Plenty of events in St Luke's have both, and we will suggest the right mix for your guests. For wakes and gatherings after a funeral and garden parties, we can cook pulled pork, hog roast rolls with crackling and beef brisket.
In a London neighbourhood like St Luke's, access is the first thing caterers ask about. We cook outdoors, so we need a garden, yard, courtyard or car park with a way in for our equipment. A photo helps. Everything we serve is cooked at your venue, whether it is a hog roast, a barbecue or both.

Planning help
St Luke's: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Artillery Ground?
Only if the landowner, usually 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 St Luke's?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you do small parties?
Tell us your numbers and we will suggest what works. For smaller numbers, a barbecue is frequently the best fit.
Which occasions do you cover?
Weddings, birthdays and garden parties, staff days, Christmas parties, fêtes and school events, wakes, care homes and film sets.
Which menu suits our event?
A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece; a barbecue gives more variety. Many bigger events have both.
Can you cater somewhere with no kitchen?
No kitchen needed: we just need a level, open spot outside.
Do you only do hog roasts?
Not at all: there’s a full barbecue menu as well, with vegetarian and vegan options on each.
Can you serve inside?
The cooking is always outdoors, though guests can eat inside.
Before you choose a spot
Gardens, yards, car parks and fields can all work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
- Enough room for people to queue
As a London location, St Luke's is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
