A winter fair at a school like Meadlands Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. For anyone getting the train home after the party, Teddington station, about 1.2 miles south-west, is the nearest station.
Anywhere in TW10, KT2 and TW11, we can roast on site for your guests. Whether your Christmas party is on New Road, Lock Road and Cave Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there.

Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Roast turkey
A carved roast turkey makes it feel like Christmas, served alongside the pork and crackling.
