We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Farthing Street to London (12 miles away).
Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as St Mary's Church draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. A winter fair at a school like Downe Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular.

Where the roaster can go in Farthing Street
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A lit route to the food
Farthing Street 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 picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
