Step by step
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In Round Street, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:50pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Gather dietary requirements early

The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is
- What the outdoor space is like
- An estimate of numbers
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your party for a quote: use our quote form.
Common questions in Round Street
Could you cook in Jeskyns?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
We’re gathering after a service at St Mary's Room: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come to Round Street?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Round Street and the rest of Kent included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do we need cover?
We bring cover for the roaster; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
