Your questions about a hog roast day in Agar Town
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Agar Town?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Lewis Cubitt Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
What time do you serve?
We fit around the home’s routine, whether lunch or later.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
About our care home hog roast in Agar Town
Retirement housing and day centres around Agar Town book hog roast days too, for summer get-togethers and themed days. Typical bookings include themed days and anniversaries of the home, with rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and halloumi skewers.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
A named contact in the home helps on the day.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A spot that keeps access clear
- A named contact on the day
- Away from windows that open and residents’ rooms
Agar Town is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

The process

- We talk through residents’ needs with your team.
- We send a quote.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
