Clewer: your questions answered
How far is Clewer from London?
Roughly 23 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Could you cook in The Goswells?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do residents have to eat rolls?
We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.

- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
