Care home hog roast in East Preston, carved to order

Around East Preston, some homes have limited outdoor space, so send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly whether the roaster fits. Timings are planned around your care home event, working back from when you want to eat.

Common questions in East Preston
How far is East Preston from London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you fit around mealtimes?
Choose the time, and we’ll be ready.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Where will the roaster go?
In the grounds, never in the kitchen and away from opening windows.
What about residents who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your care home event for a quote.
A hog roast or other catering?
For residents who need modified textures, your kitchen looks after those portions. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Winter afternoons in East Preston are short, with sunset at about 4:00pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- We clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.
How to prepare
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Let us know about tight access
