Care home hog roast for Chiswick
How our care home hog roast works in Chiswick
The roaster cooks in the grounds, well away from ambulance routes. We’re often asked to cater community open days and days for relatives, serving thinly carved roast pork, rotisserie chicken and roast potatoes.
For a care home in Chiswick, a corner of the garden or car park generally works. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Chiswick questions
Can you do a hog roast in Turnham Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Chiswick?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Can you serve on plates?
Plates are frequently easier for residents.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What about residents who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can visitors eat too?
Many homes make it a family day; just tell us total numbers.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast day feels like an outing without leaving home. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

What else we do in Chiswick
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count families and staff too
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
The process
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late May in Chiswick has light until about 8:55pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day

For event organisers in Chiswick
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How we price a hog roast day
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like
Send us the date, the address or W4 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A level spot in the garden or car park
- Away from windows that open and residents’ rooms
- Someone to meet us
As a London location, Chiswick is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
