Catering in Redruth — This Is Home
Redruth is where Salt Wind Catering lives. Our kitchen is at 37 Fore Street, right in the middle of town. When you order catering in Redruth, you're getting food that was made minutes away from your venue — you can't get fresher or more local than that.
We know every street, every venue, every community hall. This is our town and we take pride in feeding it properly. Redruth's got a proud mining heritage — Kresen Kernow on the old brewery site, the Regal Theatre on Fore Street, Murdoch Day every June, the International Mining and Pasty Festival in September — and a community that knows how to throw a proper celebration. Birthday parties in Plain-an-Gwarry, weddings at estates in Gwennap and Scorrier, rugby club dos, school fetes, and wakes at the community centre — we're here for all of it.
Whether it's a sit-down wedding breakfast for 120 at a country house, a hog roast in a back garden on Clinton Road, a buffet spread for a christening, or platters dropped off to an office on Station Hill — we bring fresh, handmade food that people actually talk about afterwards. We're fully self-sufficient. We bring our own kit, cook on-site, serve, and clear up. All you need to provide is the guests.
What We Bring to Your Redruth Event
Everything we serve is freshly prepared, homemade, and built around proper Cornish ingredients. No packet food, no reheated trays from a warehouse. Here's what we offer:
Event & Party Buffets
Event & Party Buffets — Our bread and butter. Freshly made platters delivered to your door, whether it's a birthday at home, a wake at Redruth Community Centre, a christening in a village hall, or a retirement do at the rugby club. Because we're literally round the corner, your food arrives as fresh as it gets — most Redruth orders qualify for free delivery.
Hog Roast Catering
Hog Roast Catering — A whole hog turning slowly on a spit while your guests arrive to the smell of charcoal and crackling. We source from trusted local Cornish farms and cook on-site — ideal for summer weddings at Scorrier House, large garden parties around the Redruth area, milestone birthdays, and festival-style celebrations at venues like Burncoose Estate.
BBQ Catering
BBQ Catering — Forget sad sausages. We bring premium charcoal BBQs with proper meats, vibrant sides, and genuine smoke flavour. Perfect for summer parties in gardens across Mount Ambrose, Treleigh, and Lanner, rugby club end-of-season events, and laid-back wedding receptions where you want the food to match the atmosphere.
Giant Pan Catering
Giant Pan Catering — Authentic paella, aromatic curries, and more — cooked live in our giant pans. It's a real showstopper, especially for outdoor events at Rayle Farm, community festivals, and large garden parties where you want the cooking to become part of the entertainment.
Grazing Platters & Boards
Grazing Platters — Savoury, sweet, vegetarian, low-gluten, brunch, fruit — we've got a platter for every occasion. Because we're based on Fore Street, Redruth deliveries are about as quick as it gets. Available last-minute, 7 days a week — including same-day and next-day delivery.
Redruth Venues and Locations We Cover
Whether your event is at a formal venue or your own back garden, we handle the logistics so you don't have to. Here are some of the Redruth-area locations we deliver to and set up at:
Scorrier House
Scorrier House is an exclusive-use wedding and events venue set within 400 acres of private parkland and historic gardens, just a few minutes from Redruth. The Grand Hall seats up to 160 for ceremonies, and the orangery and walled garden are stunning for outdoor celebrations. It also hosts corporate away days, Christmas parties, and gala events — a natural fit for our hog roasts and BBQ setups.
Burncoose Estate
Burncoose Estate sits within 30 acres of mature woodland gardens in the hamlet of Gwennap, just outside Redruth. The house is licensed for civil marriages and the sweeping front lawn accommodates marquee receptions for up to 150 guests. It's a self-catered venue, which means outside caterers like us are the norm — a perfect match for hog roasts, BBQs, or a full buffet spread under a marquee.
Tricky's at the Tolgus Inn
Tricky's at the Tolgus Inn on Tolgus Mount is set within 5 acres of landscaped grounds just off the A30. The Garden Room seats up to 80 for ceremonies and 120 standing for evening events. With 18 en-suite bedrooms and ample parking, it's one of the most popular function venues in the Redruth area for weddings, birthday parties, and corporate events.
Rayle Farm Events
Rayle Farm Events is a hidden gem nestled between Portreath and Redruth, conveniently located just off the A30. It's a rural events venue surrounded by Cornish countryside — ideal for relaxed outdoor weddings, festival-style celebrations, and private parties where our hog roasts and giant pan catering really come into their own.
Community Venues, Halls & Private Gardens
Not every event happens at a formal venue. We deliver to and set up at private homes and gardens across Mount Ambrose, Treleigh, Lanner, Carharrack, and Gwennap. We cater at Redruth Community Centre, the Krowji Arts Centre at West Park, sports clubs, church halls, and village halls across the surrounding parishes — St Day, Chacewater, Portreath, and Porthtowan. If there's road access and space for us to work, we can cater there — and being based in Redruth means we can be with you in minutes.
Not Just Birthday Parties
We cater for everything in Redruth. Weddings at country estates and garden marquees. Birthday parties from 18ths to 80ths. Funeral wakes and memorial gatherings handled with care and dignity. Christmas party catering when the office wants something better than a supermarket platter. Film and TV crew catering for productions filming in Cornwall. Murdoch Day and Mining Festival events. And emergency catering and welfare support — we've worked alongside National Grid during severe weather, feeding communities and frontline crews right here in our own backyard.
Why Salt Wind?
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 actually enjoy your own event. And because we're based right here on Fore Street, we're not driving in from miles away — we're your neighbours.
We've provided catering support for organisations including the NHS, National Grid, Cornwall Council, WWF, and Savills — the kind of clients who need reliability, professionalism, and food that doesn't let them down. Our hog roast and BBQ setups are fully self-contained — we don't need your venue's power, water, or kitchen facilities. We set up, we cook, we serve, we clear, and we leave the space as we found it.
Corporate & Business Catering in Redruth
Redruth is home to a growing number of businesses — from the creative companies at Krowji to offices around the town centre and industrial estates off the A30. That means there's steady demand for reliable business catering — working lunch buffets for meetings, conference catering at Scorrier House, and team away-day food for companies hosting events across the area.
Working Lunches & Meeting Catering
Need to feed a team of 10 for a strategy day? Or a boardroom of 20 for a client presentation? We deliver fresh, homemade buffets and platter selections directly to your office or meeting room. Because we're based in Redruth, turnaround is fast — we can often deliver same-day. Our corporate menus include hot and cold options, and we always accommodate dietary requirements without needing to be chased.
Team Events & Away Days
For bigger occasions — summer BBQs on the grounds at Scorrier House, Christmas parties, team-building events, or client hospitality — we bring the full outdoor catering setup. Hog roasts, charcoal BBQs, and giant pan cooking all work brilliantly for corporate events where you want to impress without the formality of a sit-down dinner.

We know the area inside out, so if you're unsure about your location, give us a call and we'll advise.
