Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Let us know roughly how many children
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

Organising for someone else?
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Aldrington parties: what to know
Aldrington is about 1 mile south-west of Brighton and Hove, in Brighton and Hove. We cover parties in Aldrington, along with the towns and villages around it. We cater 30 places in Brighton and Hove, from the larger towns to small villages.
Historic houses near Aldrington include Portslade Manor (1.4 miles north-west) and Preston Manor & Gardens (2.1 miles north-east). If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on outside caterers first.

How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. A summer party in Aldrington stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
How to get a price
