What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Permission for cooking on the site
- A queuing area
Mitcham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. At midsummer, events in Mitcham stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Give us a contact number for the day

Planning help
What affects the price in Mitcham
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- How many people are eating
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Plates or china
- Distance from us
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your menu choices
- An estimate of numbers
- The date and time of the event
When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, use our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
