Christmas parties across Southampton
In Southampton’s towns, a Christmas party might mean a car park by the office; in its villages, the hall or a farmhouse. Tell us about lighting and access. Around 40 places in Southampton are close to the coast, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.
Southampton: A winter fair at a school like Bevois Town Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. Christmas fairs at a church such as Saint Mary's can book a hog roast stall. Christmas parties in Southampton are almost always after dark: sunset is about 4:00pm in December. The cooking area is lit; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Parking near the cooking area
- A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Southampton questions
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, alongside the pork.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
