Colourful & Creative Catering
About Love & Rocket
Every Love & Rocket menu starts with the best ingredients we can find. We source from local suppliers and artisan producers across Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire, celebrating the exceptional produce our region has to offer.
Fresh seafood landed on the Sussex coast, free-range, pasture-grazed meat from trusted local butchers, seasonal vegetables and fragrant herbs all inspire menus designed around your celebration.
Many of the herbs, edible flowers and garnishes come from our own garden, alongside small-batch pickles, preserves, infused oils and compotes that add those unexpected touches our food is known for. Read more about our eco-sustainability journey here . . .
WhatWe Do
We started Love & Rocket in January 2020 from our production kitchen base at Worthing, West Sussex. In late 2023 we moved to our new base and home in the heart of the South Downs National Park at Woolbeding Common near Midhurst.
From here we provide production crew catering for BBC’s The Repair Shop, just down the road and Bake Off Professionals as well as wild fire cooking for weddings & corporate events at Surrey Hills Yurts. We are nominated caterers for the Honeybridge estate for whose clients we create boutique dinner parties, Stanmer House in Brighton and West Horsley Place in Surrey. We also provide crew & artist catering for both Block 9 and The Common at the Glastonbury festival.
Who We Are
Love & Rocket embodies the long-term partnership of Jonathan & Sacha. Since meeting in a popular Mayfair brasserie, we have seldom been away from catering.
After training in France, Chef Jonathan headed up many a busy kitchen for restaurants & event companies in London with clientele spanning celebrity chefs, rock royalty, politicians & theatre impresarios as well as teaching Practical Cookery with SEN students at West Herts College.
Likewise, Front of House Manager Sacha has spent years in busy restaurants & event spaces in London, as well as working in social care with vulnerable adults. She is passionate about the concept of service as a way of life, recognising that everyone deserves individual care & attention, and she is a stickler for ensuring that everything is done to support this in a smooth & beautiful fashion.
