For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Roast turkey can be added.

Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
