Questions from Forty Hill

Which station is closest to Forty Hill?

The closest is Turkey Street station, roughly 1 mile away.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Forty Hill?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

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 will check.

How much will it be?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your care home event for a quote.

Can you roast in the rain?

Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Can you serve at lunch?

We fit around the home’s routine, whether lunch or later.

Can we just hire the roaster?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How to compare hog roast caterers

How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. For a summer hog roast day in Forty Hill, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 3:50pm, a lunchtime event is better.

  1. We talk through residents’ needs with your team.
  2. You get a clear price.
  3. We cook in the grounds.
  4. We carve thinly and serve on plates.
  5. We tidy up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
