Corhampton questions
How far is Corhampton from London?
About 57 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Corhampton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve at lunch?
Serving time is up to you, whether lunch or later.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you cook in the kitchen?
Outdoors under cover, on a level spot clear of emergency access.
Do residents have to eat rolls?
Plates are often easier for residents.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Count families and staff too
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.
