East End of London: your questions answered
Which station is closest to East End of London?
East End of London has its own station: Shadwell station.
Can you do a hog roast in Stepney Green Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can families and staff join in?
Of course: include them in your numbers.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide full allergen information for every dish. Stuffing usually contains gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
