Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some homes combine a hog roast with entertainment, such as a singer or a garden fête. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Your questions about a hog roast day in Enfield Highway
What’s the nearest station to Enfield Highway?
Brimsdown station, about 0.6 miles south-east of the centre.
Could you cook in Gunpowder Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you cover Enfield Highway?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Enfield Highway and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What affects the price in Enfield Highway
The price comes down to:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Menu choices and extras
- How long the roast and service take
- Plates or china
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 we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
Where the roaster can go in Enfield Highway
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- An activities lead or manager as contact
- A level outdoor area
- Away from windows that open and residents’ rooms
As a London location, Enfield Highway is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
