About our care home hog roast in Chelsea
Your team knows each resident’s needs, so we provide full allergen information and work to your plan. We serve thinly carved roast pork, roast potatoes and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for staff thank-you lunches and day centre events.
Care homes in Chelsea often have a small garden or car park, so we agree a cooking spot clear of ambulance access and windows. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Instead of organising a trip, a hog roast at the home is easier for residents with mobility needs. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book our hog roast in Chelsea
- Carved to order by a chef
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- The date and time of year
- Site access
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Rough numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.

How the day works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. By late September, the light in Chelsea goes at about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We clear away quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
How to get a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: fill in our quote form.

Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Approval from the home
- Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
- Flat ground in the grounds
Chelsea 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 are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
On the menu in Chelsea

Questions from Chelsea
What’s the nearest station to Chelsea?
The closest is London Victoria station, roughly 1 mile away.
Can you do a hog roast in Burton’s Court?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What about texture-modified diets?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
