Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Step by step
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. At midsummer, events in Bethnal Green stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Let us know about tight access
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Looking after everyone

- Remember stuffing generally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Halal isn’t offered
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
Name an organiser to meet us.
Chicken widens the choice.
Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
