Event catering for Stanmore
Stanmore questions
Can you do a hog roast in Canons Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in Stanmore has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Do you cater indoors?
We always cook outside, though guests can eat inside.
What kind of caterers are you?
We are a mobile catering company that cooks on site: a hog roast, a barbecue or both, with vegetarian and vegan options. Our staff serve and clear.
Does the venue need a kitchen?
No. We cook outdoors under cover: we just need a level, open spot outside.
Can you cater a big event in Stanmore?
Large events suit a hog roast especially well. Tell us about the event and we’ll quote.
Is it just hog roast?
No. We also do BBQ catering, with burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, and many events have both.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Event catering in Stanmore, served hot
Good event catering in Stanmore comes down to three things: food people enjoy, served on time, with no mess left behind. That’s how we work, with a hog roast or a barbecue. We serve beef burgers, spit-roast lamb and pulled pork, and typical bookings are for Fêtes, fairs and school events and care home days.
Getting our equipment into a London venue in Stanmore needs a little planning: where we can unload, and how we reach the cooking spot. We’ll take it from there. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to.

What happens on the day
With cover over the cooking, rain rarely holds us up, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. In Stanmore, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so most summer events eat in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

What catering costs
The price comes down to:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
- Travel to Stanmore
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Where the event is
- An estimate of numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Our staff keep the serving table tidy through service, right through to the last plate.
