Goldsworth Park questions
Can you do a hog roast in Milford Green and Coxhill Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Goldsworth Park close to London?
About 24 miles from central London.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What time do you serve?
We fit around the home’s routine, lunch or an afternoon event.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Request thin slices
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal is not offered
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
For event organisers in Goldsworth Park
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Why choose a hog roast in Goldsworth Park?
For residents who need modified textures, your kitchen looks after those portions. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
