Before you choose a spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
  • Clear of ambulance and delivery access
  • The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Kitts End is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Request thin slices
  • Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
  • Count families and staff too
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.

Ask about china.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
