How our event catering works in Sunbury-on-Thames
Whoever you book in Sunbury-on-Thames, you want three things from your caterers: food people enjoy, served on time, with no mess left behind. We deliver all three, cooked on site. Typical bookings include gatherings after a service and festive parties, with salads, pulled pork and beef burgers.
In a town like Sunbury-on-Thames, we cater everything from garden parties to staff days and club events: a hog roast for a wedding, a barbecue for a birthday, both for a fête. All we need is a level spot outdoors to cook. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How the day works
We work back from when you want to eat: a hog roast needs us there hours ahead, a barbecue a little less. Either way, it is ready on time. Around midsummer it stays light in Sunbury-on-Thames until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so most summer events eat in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough numbers and the kind of event.
- We suggest a hog roast, a barbecue or both, then send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up on the agreed spot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
