About our care home hog roast in Knightsbridge
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, which is easier for many people than a roll. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. We’re often asked to cater family days with visitors and garden fêtes, with apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
London care homes around Knightsbridge often sit on busy streets with tight access, so we agree access and timings with the home first. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Compared with a normal lunch from the kitchen, a hog roast day feels like an outing without leaving home. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

Questions from Knightsbridge
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Knightsbridge?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Royal Parks of London?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Plates are frequently easier for residents.
