Event catering in Victoria: what to know
Victoria is about 1 mile south of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We cover Victoria and its neighbours for events. Victoria is one of 764 places in Greater London where we cater.
After a wedding, christening or funeral at a church such as St. Michael's Church, we can cater at a hall, home or venue nearby. Parks such as Green Park normally need council permission for caterers, so check first.
We bring hog roasts to events all over SW1V, SW1P and SW1X. Your event could be at a house on Eaton Lane, Gerald Road and Wilton Road, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. You’ll find Victoria on the A202 and A302, so it is easy for us to reach with the equipment. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Belgravia (1 mile north-west), Chelsea (1 mile south-west), City of Westminster (1 mile north), Kennington (1 mile south-east) and Brompton (1 mile west). We also serve nearby towns such as Shoreditch (4 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles north-east), Whitechapel (4 miles north-east), Hampstead (4 miles north) and Ruislip (13 miles north-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Baynard's Castle (2.2 miles north-east) and Health Exhibition Centre (less than half a mile south-west). The countryside around Victoria includes Ludgate Hill and St. James's Park Lake.
- Local schools include Westminster Cathedral Choir School (within half a mile east) and Westminster City School (less than half a mile north-east)
- Pubs nearby include Wetherspoons pub (less than half a mile east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Westminster St Margaret and St John (0.6 miles north-east) and London Library (0.9 miles north)
How our event catering works in Victoria
A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece; a barbecue gives more variety. Plenty of events in Victoria have both, and we’ll help you decide. For weddings and evening receptions and festive parties, we can cook beef burgers, pulled pork and salads and more.
Events in Victoria 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. You’ll know exactly what’s included before booking.

A closer look at the menu
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Pulled pork
Slow-cooked pork, pulled apart, and served in a soft roll.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask about allergies and diets when guests reply
After service, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Ask for both menus for a long day, such as a wedding with evening guests.
Why choose event catering in Victoria?
Gardens, fields and car parks all work
Lots of different events suit a hog roast. Here are some of the most popular:

Why choose us as your caterers in Victoria?
Compared with booking several food vans, one caterer keeps everyone eating together from one menu. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why Victoria hosts choose us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Timed around your day
- Cooked where you are
- A hog roast, a barbecue or both

Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Flat ground outdoors for the cooking
Victoria is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Victoria questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Victoria?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Green Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes. We are happy to agree access, timings and the cooking spot with your venue or planner.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December go first, so ask early. Midweek dates are frequently easier. Fill in our quote form.
Can you do halal?
We don’t. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are standard. Ask about china for a sit-down meal.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
Are you a full-service caterer?
Hog roast and BBQ catering is what we do, plus salads, potatoes and meat-free choices. Tell us what you’re planning and we will suggest a menu.
How the day works
We take our agreed spot and keep the rest of the space free, and the event carries on around us. In December, sunset in Victoria is about 3:55pm, so think about lights and shelter for guests.
- Send us your date, venue and rough numbers.
- Choose your menu with us.
- We set up before food time.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
