Event Catering in Mullion — Hog Roasts, BBQs & Buffets on the Western Lizard
Mullion sits on the western edge of the Lizard Peninsula — dramatic cliffs at Mullion Cove, the sheltered harbour, the sweep of Poldhu Beach where Marconi sent his first transatlantic radio signal, and the wildflower meadows above Gunwalloe Church Cove. The area draws weddings, holiday celebrations, and community events to venues with views that make any occasion feel special. Salt Wind Catering provides professional mobile catering across Mullion, Cury, Gunwalloe, Poldhu, and the wider western Lizard. Mullion is around 25 minutes from our Redruth base via the A394 and B3296.
Hog Roast & BBQ at Clifftop Venues
Our hog roast catering and BBQ catering work brilliantly at the Lizard's clifftop and coastal venues. Our setup is completely self-sufficient — no kitchen, power, or water required — which is essential for the remote fields and private gardens around Mullion Cove, Poldhu, and Gunwalloe where there are often no facilities at all. A whole hog slow-roasted over real charcoal with the Atlantic as a backdrop makes any event unforgettable. Our giant pan catering — fresh paella, seafood curry, or lamb tagine cooked live in massive pans — is a natural fit for the Lizard's coastal character.
Delivered Buffets & Seafood Platters
Our Cornish seafood platters are a natural choice for Lizard celebrations — local crab, smoked fish, and shellfish presented beautifully. We also deliver sandwich platters, savoury platters, hot buffet platters, grazing platters, and cream teas to community halls, holiday cottages, and private addresses across Mullion. Everything arrives freshly prepared and ready to set out on tables with no kitchen needed.
Weddings & Celebrations
Our wedding catering covers venues including Polurrian on the Lizard and Mullion Cove Hotel. Marquee weddings in private gardens and farm fields with sea views are increasingly popular on the Lizard. We handle the full day from canapés during the drinks reception through to evening buffets and grazing carts. We also cater birthday parties, retirement celebrations, wakes at Mullion Mechanics Institute, and corporate events for businesses on the Lizard. We hold a 5-star food hygiene rating and full NCASS accreditation.
Holiday Cottage Catering & Nearby Areas
We deliver holiday cottage food including welcome hampers, breakfast boxes, BBQ kits, and celebration platters to holiday cottages, Airbnbs, and glamping sites across Mullion and the Lizard. Beyond Mullion, we also cover the wider Lizard Peninsula, Porthleven, Helston, and Coverack.
