Catering in Newquay — Surf Town, Serious Food
Newquay runs on good times. From beach weddings at Lusty Glaze to clifftop parties overlooking Fistral, summer festivals, stag and hen weekends, and Boardmasters crowds — this town knows how to throw an event. But when you need proper catering, not just a burger van on the seafront, that's where Salt Wind comes in.
We're based in Redruth — about 25 minutes from Newquay down the A30 — and we've been feeding events across north Cornwall's coast for years. We know the venues, we know the access issues (and trust us, getting a hog roast rig down to some of these beach coves is an adventure in itself), and we know what works for 20 people or 200.
What We Bring to Your Newquay Event
Everything homemade, freshly prepared, and built around proper Cornish ingredients. Here's what we offer:
Event & Party Buffets — Freshly made platters delivered to your Newquay venue. Holiday cottages, hotel function rooms, village halls in St Columb Minor or Crantock — wherever you're hosting, we'll get it there looking the part. Birthdays, christenings, wakes, office parties, you name it.
Hog Roast Catering — A whole hog from a local Cornish farm, slow-roasted on-site. There's nothing like the smell of a hog turning while your guests arrive to a clifftop garden overlooking the Atlantic. Perfect for summer weddings at The Headland Hotel, beach parties, and large garden dos around the Newquay area.
BBQ Catering — Premium charcoal BBQs with proper cuts, vibrant sides, and genuine smoke flavour. Newquay and BBQs go together naturally — perfect for surf club events, beach-adjacent parties at Porth or Mawgan Porth, and laid-back receptions.
Giant Pan Catering — Authentic paella, aromatic curries, and more cooked live in our giant pans. A real crowd-pleaser at outdoor Newquay events — think festival vibes, harbourside parties, and Falmouth Week-style gatherings.
Grazing Platters — Savoury, sweet, vegetarian, low-gluten, brunch, and fruit options. Delivered across Newquay. Need something last-minute? We do 7-day-a-week delivery.
Newquay Venues and Locations We Know
Newquay's got everything from grand clifftop hotels to tucked-away beach coves, and we've catered at a fair few of them. The Headland Hotel and Spa overlooking Fistral. Lusty Glaze Beach for those iconic cove weddings. The Pentire Hotel and Hotel California up on the headland. Holiday parks and self-catering sites around Porth, Crantock, and Holywell Bay. Trenance Gardens and the boating lake area. Private marquees in gardens from St Columb Minor to Mawgan Porth. Trevilley Farm and Little Oak Cornwall for rustic outdoor events. Plus the usual village halls, community centres, and sports clubs where most of the real parties happen.
Not Just Beach Weddings
We cater for everything in Newquay. Corporate away days and team events. Birthday parties from 18ths to 80ths. Funeral wakes and memorial gatherings — handled with care. Christmas party catering when the office wants something better than a Tesco platter. Film and TV crew catering for productions shooting on the north coast. Surf competition events and beach festivals. And emergency catering and welfare support — we work alongside National Grid when storms hit and communities need feeding.
Why Salt Wind for Newquay Catering?
We're 5-star food hygiene rated, FSB members, and NCASS registered. Everything is made from scratch using locally sourced Cornish produce — no packet food, no shortcuts. We handle delivery, setup, and clearing so you can enjoy those Atlantic views instead of worrying about the food. And because we're just down the A30, we're close enough to adapt when the Cornish weather decides to throw a curveball.
