How we price a hog roast day

Questions from Hayes
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Hayes?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Coney Hall Recreation Ground?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do you cover Hayes?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Hayes and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.

- You get a clear price.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
